I am really close to call it quits- i need to vent

I'm sorry you are in this position. I think it's great that you recognize that you need to scale back and make more time for your family.

If it were me and I was really stressed out, than yes I would keep the easier children/parents. However, I would likely term the newest clients as I would feel that was the fairest.

I totally agree with 5 little monkeys. Keep the children/parents that are easier and can "go with the flow". I've been in this situation and ended up getting rid of a dcb whose mother I didn't get along with and was an all around a pain in the ass.
I felt so much better after that...my stress level went way down and I knew that I did the right thing.
No amount of money will make up for your sanity and peace of mind
