I so totally agree cfred ..... I tell parents openly that my 'illness policy' and requiring exclusion for certain things is not so much about preventing the spread of illness but ensuring that children recovery quickly in the comfort of their own home until they are in a position to enjoy the program again and also because honestly it is too hard for ME to care for multiple sick children as they tend to need more one on one attention when truly under the weather ... I have yet to have an issue with clients trying to send 'sick' children into care not sure if I am just lucky or what or if I just have a different definition of 'sick'?
