Sick Child gets okay from Doctor to attend

[33 Daiseys]

yup no no way. I have had a child pass out and smack their head on my coffee table. Never again. I would just explain to the parents that it is clear he can not keep up with out door play time. Take a video of the coughing attack, text it to the parents.
In my case they said I was exaggerating the coughing fits. On the second day just after drp off i got the video, sent it. 30 minutes later the child passed out and hit their head. Parents picked up took them to the hospital. 4 hours later I got a knock on the door , and there are 2 police officers asking what happened that they suspected abuse. I showed them the video and the text messages. While they were having tea playing with the daycare kids and I, they got a call saying the child o2 levels were very low, and very likely what was causing the passing out, turned out they had ammonia(?).
And that is why I firmly believe in document everything, COVER YOUR ASS, in every instance no matter how silly.

Is he up to date on his vaccinations ? Maybe it's whopping cough or could be coupe. I'd call mom for pick up and tape his coughing attacks to show Mom and Dr.

My nephew is perfectly healthy (20months) but 3x now he has gotten a cold and has needed puffers and all sorts of meds because he quickly develops pneumonia.

He did get a chest xray, which should have ruled out this though. But perhaps it has progressed. I would film it. At pick up pull them aside and say you are concerned, you filmed one of his episodes so they can see what you are observing, he may be more active here so they are not seeing the same thing. Do it in a concerned, proactive manner not a "I told you he has a problem" kinda tone so they don't feel like you think they are sucking as parents! There is a good chance at home he is on the couch watching tv so isn't as bad.
