If parents want new toys in the daycare, I tell them I will gladly accept donations of new toys from them and if they're not willing because they really don't want to provide new toys for the rest of the kids, they usually stay quiet after that.
Unbelievable.
You should have informed them that new toys don;t stay new for very long in a daycare anyways lol !
