Chalk it up to a bad day and a kid with special needs and yes I will be telling everyone the way I told you on here.
I don't like it in family childcare and I am not asking to be a host for it by any means .....It is just not safe here at all
Make them go to a safe place during transition. Joe and John - have a seat at the table. Everyone else _______. Have them sit at the table, or another specific safe spot. Or release them one at a time. Joe you may walk to the rug. Now, Sally...now John. Plan ahead how to manage the transitions. Always have a plan. Especially when you know what sort of behavior to anticipate.
