I too have a "damage clause" in my handbook. Has never happened (yet) and I feel so bad for you..but I would be adding this clause to yours LOL
I know you agree supervision..but I also agree that the children NEED to be taught what is acceptable bathroom behavior. I have twin girls who just entered K and while one does play with anything and everything she shouldn't...she has never pushed it THAT far. When she was your DCB's age..she used to put toothpaste in the toilet paper and Q tips in the tooth paste, squirt soap every where..etc etc. I knew every time she went int here I was in for it..but I waited and would punish. On occasion I would intervene..but I wanted her to LEARN. She now only occasionally does things. Usually it is water in the soap bottle but I thinks he does it when it is near empty. I assume she has seen someone do this as I never do it.
SO I am with you on the parents stepping up and helping you teach the child, if they are unwilling to help assist you in teaching the children basic values and instead opts to reward them by taking them out to dinner..my thought is termination honestly. This was a HUGE issue and the parents should of (right in front of you) spoken to the child to let him know..they are on the same page as you!
