    I hear ya! It's the roughest part of the job. Why can't we just get parents that are reasonable, respectful and understanding. There's one in every bunch I think.

    I have some great parents right now, but I'm about to enforce a vacation policy for the first time and I'm worrying about it a little bit. Hope it goes ok, but if it doesn't, there's my door. My policies are clearly laid out and if it's a misunderstanding that's one thing, but mostly they understand, they just try to get away with stuff.

    Yup. apples and bananas nailed it down. This is it exactly! Stay strong and keep enforcing your policies. Otherwise you become a doormat. Daycare parent is just mad that he has to play by the rules.
