Just had the interview from HELL!!!!

[Momof4]

I just don't understand, if their children act like this in public and we are supposed to be reading through the contract and them asking questions, why didn't they leave kids home with dad and just mom come? If they decided to come with me, I could have met dad and kids after.
I usually chose my living room also because it is a quiet and comfortable environment to get to know one another with the parent(s).
Momof4, I know what you're saying but I think I was more in shock that this was happening, so it was rendering me speechless for a bit, lol.

Are you saying you are actually considering accepting this family? I insist that the parents and child are all in attendance at the interview for this exact reason. I would not accept them into care because all I would foresee would be problems. If the parents do not have any rules or discipline at home or out in public you know they are not going to help you when you need it and you're going to have nothing but headaches with this family. I only accept families who share the same parenting philosophies as me, for raising well behaved, considerate, empathetic children who understand rules and praise, but also consequences for bad behaviour.
