Hi ladies,
I just gave notice to a family of a little 2 year old. She was very aggressive and constantly needing to be re-directed. I am so exhausted at the end of the days that’s she s here.
She kicks and hits me all the time when she needs to get changed L I usually bribe her and ask her if she wants to go potty and she usually says yes but when’s she goes #2 she hides and won’t let me change her. I dread every time I have to change her. I can’t leave her in a room alone with anyone for fear of her hurting them etc…
But…there is a really a soft side to her and she can be so loving and she is extremely smart. I have done all that I can and I know I needed to terminate for the best interest of every one. Her parents sort of had a lack of respect for me & it showed in the way they didn’t follow through on disciplining her themselves. When you are in this business and your working alone for the good of a child it never works.
I just feel bad because she has made some really good friends here and it’s going to be such a shock to her when she doesn’t come anymore. It really breaks my heart. I have been watching her for almost 5 months and I truly hope her next experience will be a good one. I have recommended her been in a program with peers and not younger children as she thrives in this atmosphere!
Don’t you ladies hate it when it doesn’t work out? I hate feeling this way but I know I will have more manageable days and a happier group overall!
