I had a client once that didn't want me to take her child on field trips. No problem as he didn't come on Fridays so I would plan for them that day. Then she said she felt that her son was missing out so she allowed me to take him on field trips after that. In the mean time I heard that she was letting the teenage neighbor girl drive him. So she trusted a teenager to drive but not her daycare provider?

I have both types of clients where they are quite trusting of me taking their child on field trips and another wanting to know exactly all the details of our trip. I'm finding more and more parents aren't as trusting. I had one client that never trusted me even though her children were here for 3 years and she knew how safety conscious I am.
