No way would I let a great family go because they were having a baby. I love babies! And great families. And income. Must be nice to know you can replace them so quickly that it's ok to not take their newborn. Here, getting new kids is a struggle, so even if I had a no-infant policy (why?!!) I'd probably make an exception for present clients. I guess in some ways it's more important for me to nourish the relationships w/ families, and especially w/children, than it is to be as strict about "respect" and "policies" as it seems so many on this forum are. And somehow, this works out so that my parents give me raises un-asked, remember my birthday generously, treat all of the children in care as friends of their children, etc. Oh, kind like we're a FAMILY (day care)!
