omgsweet - thanks for understanding, hon. I actually am very very busy at the moment. We are currently having the house extended and sooo many things have gone wrong, I am very close to hang myself on a tree. So even DS does stay home with a sitter it doesn't do him any good either. Basically everything is a mess right now.

ilovepinkhearts - I totally appreciate you voicing your opinion and respect it. I think it's great that you are able to offer all the protection that your child(ren) deserves. As much as I don't want to send DS back, I pretty much have no choice. My family could end up on the street if the home extention issues don't get solved. The teacher seems to be worrying her @$$ off right now because she found out that CPS will be having an investigation soon, and she was about to cry last time she apologized to me. So it seems like DS should be safe for the rest of his stay.

Again, I appreciate all your inputs. After the incident, I am always hearing from the teachers that how much progress DS is making, how he puts his belongings in his locker himself, how well his bonding with his friends, how great he was in musical chair, how much fun he was having and etc... Sounded so good that I almost took back his leaving notice. But after reading all your posts, I believe that I can't look back, it was too much of a risk and if it ever does happen again, I'd kick myself hard. I am just hoping that this change will be a good thing for all of us. Will keep you posted.

Mothers instinct. I just took my daughter out of the daycare she's been in since she was 6 weeks old and will be calling tomorrow to the licensing board to file a complaint. ALL the workers that were there when she started are now gone and it has gone downhill fast.

You know what's best, don't second guess your self, if you felt she was doing something wrong then you were right.

I worked in daycares for a long time, they will tell you anything to not lose your money. Daycares actually make very little profit. (of course depending on what part of the country you're in.)

I worried too about changing her environment but her new pediatrician told me that kids are much more resilient than we are, they adapt much quicker.

OMG! How horrible!

This reason I put dd in daycare was i believe they are safer, the staff are of a higher qualilty, something like this is shocking.

You absolutely did the right thing! What you witnessed was not okay and that teacher probably shouldn't even be working in day care. At 2 years-old, kids don't really have true friends, so your son should bounce back just fine. Like Swank said, you could always stay in touch with them outside of the school. Best of luck!

Those kinds of things happening to your child are heartbreaking and you did do the right thing and you're right, you can't worry about him being there all day. But I can also understand how how it is since he seemed to be doing so well there with making friends and all. I'm sure it was a tough call, but you have be positively sure your child is safe and you did the right thing.

I am so sorry that this happened to your DS, but you definitely did the right thing! It's a good thing you caught onto it before anything more could have happened!
