[QUOTE=Blackcat31;357104]This sounds like a bad situation getting worse. I would have some serious issues with the above (bolded) part. They can't expect you to make up for their shortcomings as education begins at home. You can support her learning and you can have academic activities/experiences in your program but when the parents aren't willing to meet their child's basic needs (good rest, good outside play, good food) then you can't "make up" for that. It really sounds like this family might not be a good fit for your program and if I was not able to get the parents on the right track-with following your rules and bringing the right supplies, as well as not just parking their kid(s) in front of the TV all the time, I would seriously consider terming them and finding someone else to fill their spaces. I would gladly provide academic activities and experiences for the kids in care but I would never agree to getting a child back on track like that. Yes! You are right.....Parents can drive us crazy!! Hang in there.... :)[/QUOTE]
