The parent CAN support you by following your policies, talking to their child about what is acceptable behavior at daycare, supporting the idea that mean/physical play is not okay but it doesnt sound like any of that is going to happen with these parents. You can keep this child and watch him like a hawk for the next few months and take the risk that no one will get seriously hurt OR you can term now. Constantly bringing up stuff to the parents is not helping at all and more than likely, they may try to find a way to leave your care sooner because they will see your comments as complaining. They clearly are not going to address the behavior or help support any changes. Either you can deal with that or you cant.
