Sorry, I don't have much to offer in terms of advice. The only thing I can think of is telling mom and dad together, that if this behaviour keeps up, they will lose their space. I understand your money situation, but there is always another child. IT's not worth it if you have to deal with this.

I would tell mom that she will be required to deal with this issue at home, start disciplining, enforce rules, and that if this behaviour happens at drop off, the child will be going home with her every time until it straightens up, or until the termination date . You do not have to put up with any violence from a child. If the child lays a hand/foot on you, mom has XX minutes to pick him up or you're calling the emergency contact.
