Gramma, you didn't mention how long this has been going on, but I'm sure you know that all children take a different amount of time to transition. I've had crying last 2-4 months before it stops altogether. However, I have one very spoiled little boy who has been with me almost 2 years and still cries every day. I'm sorry, but it's absolutely ridiculous and I wish I had terminated him a very long time ago. So you have to find your breaking point, your line in the sand, your last straw and that is different for all of us. But we all deserve to be happy and remember that nonstop crying is very stressful for all the other children, not just for us.
