![]() I would also require pull-ups for nap and just take the twins to the bathroom a lot throughout the day. I would also require them to bring several sets of clothing especially a lot of underwear because you know that they will have at least a few accidents. For a family like this I wouldn't have a problem sending a hild home in only underwear if they had soiled through all of their extra clothing. ![]() I would also do as sugested above and send any and all soiled clothing home. If they do then just return the ones that you bought or keep them around just in case they forget to bring them one day. I would buy a few pairs over the weekend and see if they bring some to you. ![]() They never leave here of course, these stay here. Have you thought about you going out to buy the plastic underwear? I mean I know that it's not your responsibility but for me I personally have an extra set of shoes, clothes and even cloth diapers (in case I run out and parents forget to bring more) in pretty much any size from 6mo to 4T because I know that parents aren't always good at bringing even these essentials and the only way that I'll know for sure that I'll have these extras is if I provide them myself. ![]() I say temporarily because you can continue to advertise for new clients and at least if you get 2 new FT kids you can then make as much as you make now with the twins then you can term them or even wait a little more until you get one more new client. Am I correct? If this is the case then there are a few options that you can choose from.ġ) You can talk to them now and require that they follow your policies as they are written and term them if they don't abide by them (which I know that you don't want to do).Ģ) Allow them to bring the twins in underwear and put up with it temporarily. I feel like you really don't want to let them go against your policies, unfortunately because of your financial situation you feel like you don't have a choice. I feel out of control and helpless right now. I will mention health dept and everything else, but I just feel like this is going to end badly. I'm going to lose 2 incomes and that could foreclose my house if I don't get a replacement ASAP. I suppose my problem is that I don't know how to deal with parents who are sure their way will work. I know loosing income can be hard but realy is any one that runs group care of any kind going to allow the children to pee everywhere.īasically these parents dont care about my house or the other kids. If you have to ask them if they would like ther child to play in and around where a childern that are not Matter inreguards to keep the other children safe. Which is true and if they push the matter do not talk ablout what the children are or are not doing at home that information does not Tell the parents that this is for the health and safety ofĮvery child in your care. give the parents the choice say since the children have not been able to go a resonable amount of time with out anĪcident then they must eith be in a diaper or a pull up or have plastic pants over their underwear. "Blame" the health the health department. What should I do? My dcp's all decided to take advantage of me all at once I have interviews coming up to replace dcb I just termed but nothing solid yet. The problem is that I just termed another family for breaking my rules and I need the income. I suggested plastic underwear over the regular and hard had no response. I have 2 options: put up with the pee and poop all over my house, or get termed by this family. The parents are just pushing something that is only setting up everyone to fail. I have a phb that says they must tell me for 2 weeks without accidents before coming in underwear.Ĭlearly, you can tell that this is not going to turn out well for me. Both dcp's have decided they just are going cold turkey ubderwear only after Monday. Dcm says that she doesn't think they are able to recognize when they have to go. Dcd stated the children ate just being lazy and choosing to use diapers. They can't even keep their diapers dry for 1.5 hora at a time. They were doh g okay with telling me they had to potty for a while, then regressed for some reason and rarely tell me. These children have never gone a full day without an accident. I previously agreed to trying the underwear as an experiment to see if they would be responsive, but I intend on having a back up for nap time, etc to see if it doesn't work. Today, dcd tells me they will no longer be purchasing diapers and they will be bringing their twins in underwear as of next Tuesday, and we will be using pull ups. I asked dcp's 2 days ago to bring more diapers and wipes.
