What do you do? What are your experiences? How do you deal with it? Is it reason to terminate or do you stick it out for the income and bare with it and hope it gets better and you grow to love them? I have had one experience where my feelings started to change towards the child, and the parents,after taking care of the child for about a year. His behaviour was getting worse and he was just starting to get to be too much work. I was able to tell them they were having to find a new place after a heated conversation over a particular issue that got brought up which we didn't see eye to eye on(which were cause for his change in behaviour), so i was able to let them go under other circumstances. But now I have a new one. 12 mths. he started 3 mths ago and he seems to be a very loud and angry child. No one else screams so angrily and I have treated him exactly the same as everyone else. I had mentioned it to the mom, whom I truly love and love working for, and said its something that we'd have to work on cause it scares the other kids, but he does it sometimes in front of her and I want to say see! this is what i mean! but don7t because she doesn't seem phased by it cause she's just used to it and doesn't consider it really screaming angrily. So am i just being too sensitive and picky cause I want to strive to have a calm and gentle group where I am not going insane? Should I just be sucking it up for the income or should this be reason to let them go? Its usually if he's not getting what he wants, or being impatient at getting his food, but it also just happens out of the blue. and its throughout the day and its driving me nuts! I hate it. and I feel like its just part of his personality and I'm having a hard time seeing it be something he grows out of. He just has what seems like to be a more rugged/very bossy demeanor and I am starting to be soooo annoyed! Its hard enough work to have all "good" kids, so to have one that gets on your nerves, is it worth it to continue or am I just being too picky?
