How to say goodbye

[Momof4]

Keep the letter short and to the point and professional. I had to terminate a family this year and it was sheer hell. The Dad started asking me a million questions and got angrier and angrier. But you know what? He hadn't heard a word I'd said in a year and a half and his questions at the termination proved it.

I had a couple of friends read my letter and give me advice before I gave it to the family. When you are involved you get too emotional and you need to keep all the emotion out of a letter like this.
