DCB moving on?

Sounds like the mom has had some issues in her head for awhile including the boy/girl ratio. She may have brought things up in front of the child based on his not wanting to nap issue and now the child sees the going to a different daycare as a way out of what he doesn't want (naps) and all the while mom is using her own ratio hangup to fuel the debate.

I would be actually calling them out on it as you need to get ads out for Sept and all it will take is one incident and that will be like the last straw. Parents and especially fathers get really upset about their sons and doing "girl" things and that may also be where some of the talk is coming from - meaning first time boy tells about his day of doll play or dressing up or pretending to dance like a ballerina - you are done anyways. Would be better to get the upper hand and replace on your schedule.

If nothing else it will give you and the mom a chance to talk about what is "really" going on. It may be that the child did overhear the parents talking about a new daycare but missed the part where mom says no I am happy with our current arrangement and don't want to change daycares.
