Well, you asked and I will give you my honest opinion. Your daughter sounds like a bully who is accustomed to getting her own way and never paying any consequence for it. She needs to be disciplined for her actions.

Here's the thing with your own kids when you are running a daycare - while you want to make the day great for YOUR kid because that is the entire reason for your doing daycare in the first place, you still have to protect your BUSINESS. If your kid is so undisciplined that she runs off all of your clients then you might as well just put your own kid in daycare and go get a job outside the home. You know?

I think it is great that you recognize the problem. Heck, most dcparents think their kids are perfect angels and could NEVER even get to the point of recognizing a problem as you have. But the thing is you MUST discipline her for her actions or she will only get worse.
