    Frustrated with dcm and looking for advice...

    i have had a dcm causing me stress lately and trying to put her two cents worth in while i write up a policy handbook. she doesn't seem to understand that this is my business and that she can simply review my policies and agree or NOT agree to them. it seems so simple to me, but she seems to feel that these business decisions are things we should discuss since her daughter has been with me for 3 years.

    honestly, i am so tired of being questioned and pushed that i am ready to tell her it is time for her to find a different caregiver for her child. i love the child, but dealing with the mom just feels too hard.

    when is input from a parent too much? how much input, if any, should one allow the parents when setting policies?
