However, in WI parents have the right to visit their child whenever they want, with or without notice, with or without prior approval. If it's the same in your state I'd be careful what you say to her so she doesn't file a complaint.

I am seriously considering terming again. My assistant saw her drive by my house the other day & almost run into my bushes looking at my house (it wasn't her child's care day). Thank you all for the great advice! Sometimes it's just not a fit & it's really too bad for the kids.

We see a lot of claims come from these types of parents. Be sure you document every conversation you have with her, especially if something she says seems off.

I thought your post was a good bye party...
After reading all the way through, WOW this lady sounds very interesting. I had one similar to this, not quite this bad, I had to push them out of the program and let them term me because I was worried about the mother's stability and what she would do if I did it.
Only difference is, we did not really enjoy her child. In this situation the apple didn't fall far from the tree...

They come across as annoying but harmless but they arent.
I am not in any way doubting your abilities or your care/policies etc.....I am doubting her.
Eventually, she may grow weary of being brushed off or annoyed that her concerns (fake or genuine) are not being taken seriously or given enough attention and that is when those types of people come unglued.
I am praying you have the staff, the foresight and the ability to ward off any potential outburst she "may" have when denied access to this party or whatever else she isn't getting.
You know your situation best and know more details than any of us, so I am confident you will do what you can but please don't let your guard down..... if at any time your instincts tell you something is a little "off"...please don't ignore them.
Like I said, BTDT and my family was golden for almost 3 yrs before all out h377 broke loose and that was that.

Originally posted by TBird View PostThank God, NO! All of my parents are FT, drop & go workers...they pay each other no mind. They trust us implicitly & we've raised most of their children from 6 weeks old. Once we realized her behavior, we answer NO QUESTIONS & I told her to limit her conversations to HER child. Most days she comes in talking to herself about who's here or whose name is on the wall & we grab beautiful at the gate & totally ignore her. I feel like we're the only "normal" people in that kids' life. Will is last??? Probably not.

I understand liking the child but this mom's behavior is extreme and not something I'd be comfortable with.
If I were a parent that attended your care, I'd have MAJOR concerns about this situation.
Are the other parents aware of the shady behaviors this mom has towards you, your family and your program?

Agree with the others
I especially like the above suggestion "kids only I'll send you pictures". And leave it at that.

A birthday party is the LEAST of your issues here.
