Advice please!!!!!!!!! Feeding tube

[Spixie33]

This would be scary enough to do to my own children. There is no way I would do it for a dck. The chances of something going wrong and the child becoming sick or worse (dying if tube in wrong place) are too great and I don't think it is a smart move. On top of that, you are going to be taking so much time to be with this little one, your other kids are going to suffer. I would just explain to the parents that it is not something you can be responsible for. If they are half decent parents, they will understand. I know you may lose money if she is out for a long period of time, but I would prefer to lose some cash, than to lose a child or my career. Good luck to you. I can't believe they even asked you to do such a thing!

I agree ! To me it seems that they are looking for the cheapest and easiest solution to meet their needs so that neither of the parents would have to lose their job or that they wouldn't have to pay a nurse or nanny more.
What better way to save money than asking your existing daycare to take on that responsibility.
I am sure they are stressed and were not expecting to deal with this issue but I really get the feeling that they are putting too much trust in a daycare provider and thinking about what is cheapest and easiest for them rather than what is in the best interest of their child
