1. I was newly pregnant with a high risk pregnancy, family kept bringing in sick children and saying it was because of too much granola/watermelon/candy/etc. They broke policies (or, tried to) all the time and I had enough. Mom yelled at me and slammed the door at pick up time in front of all of the children and then sent her husband here to chew me out. My husband wouldn't allow him in.

2. I was still newly pregnant with a high risk pregnancy and the behavior of a child continued escalating. I had tried to deal with it for 9 months but he was 4.5 and enjoyed hurting other children. He found it funny and it made him happy. I placed him on a behavior plan to attempt to get the parents to assist me more but he was suspended within 24 hours for 3 incidents of harming other children. The Dad then blamed me for his child's behavior (even though he did things like throw rocks at his Grandma's head outside of here which his wife let me know...) and told me he was suing me unless I gave the remainder of their tuition back. I wound up giving it back to avoid additional stress. They knew I had lost 3 babies before and needed to minimize my stress levels. We still saw him around for years after that and he always smiled, waved, and asked how we were doing. I always walked away.

3. This year...
Mother fabricated her child's abilities and the child needed one on one care. It wasn't safe for anyone for her not to have it. I terminated care, she didn't bring her back, demanded the belongings by a certain time, and I placed them on the porch so as not to have an explosive Mom around my kids. She still rang the bell and proceeded to yell at me in front of the kids at pick up time about how rude of a person I was. I told her that her e-mail sounded upset so I was making it a safe situation for my current kids by not allowing anger or yelling around them. She continued to yell.
