Can I Pick Your Brains?

If you are willing to loose them then practice on them.

Tell them that you will do CIO. That she will be layed down for naps and confined when she is raging.

Lock your door and answer the door WITH her in your hands ready to go. If they arrive and she's not changed... change her and THEN answer the door. Whenever they come for a check in they take her with them. One arrival... one departure ... per parent...per child... per day. Only exceptions are specialty doc appointments that you know of in advance.

Stop the one to one care you are giving the parents.

I agree, it's time to term. If this child hurts herself during one of her rages, it's going to come back on you for not protecting her. It is impossible to care for the others with her constantly attached to your hip.

One of the parents needs to stay home with the mess that they are creating.
