Check your contract. My only other thought is to possibly contact the YMCA headquarters (if there is one). I'm not too familiar with the YMCA. I just remember that we had car repair problems from a Ford Dealer years ago and we contacted the Ford Motor Company and they intervened and had the car dealer cut our repair bill in half and apologize. It is worth a try anyway.
I'm so sorry you are going through this. Have you checked out home providers? With smaller numbers and a different setting he might have more success. Where I live we have an non profit agency that will have someone come to my house (I am a home provider) and observe a child and give recommendations. It sounds like that is what you are doing now though.
Good luck.

Hi Laurel,
Thank you for your response. I took your advice and I did contact the main office for the YMCA, their entire philosophy is based on helping families not making them worse. We do have a local nonprofit agency that we are working with to have him evaluated. From the intake she said he would qualify for services, but it may take some time because of his age they need to evaluate him in his normal surroundings, which I understand. Since I have been home with him I see how difficult he can be at times, but I thought this was why they call it the terrible two's. LOL. Having a one on one with him at daycare won't hurt it will only help him with his social skills for kindergarten. It's just the timing of everything has been so awful. The only way me and dad are going to keep our sanity is to try and turn it into something positive and not focus on the negative side of this.
thanks again for your reply.
