I have 2 sons, I also watch 3 other boys.  One of the boys I watch has some behavioral issues.  Such as always playing in  negative manner, not sharing, not listening, no remorse, etc.  I have addressed the parents numerous times and nothing seems to change.  It has effected not just my own kids, but my whole family, including the other 2 boys I watch.  Now his teacher is noticing this behavior, and he refuses to do his work in school.  The mom said I was to leanient, (which I am not) I can only dicsipline so far.  Now they are saying the same thing about the teacher.  They told the teacher it is not their job to do his work that he does not finish at school.  They said they do not have time for that, and that if he does not get his work done at school then he can get whatever grade he deserves.  Basicaly they said if he has to be held back then fine.  I am struck because I know this will teach him nothing.  I can not say anything to them because for whatever reason they are not seeing that their son needs some help.  Do you have any advice for me?  I am to the point that I think I should no longer watch him after school.  All of our kids our in private school, and he can get help if needed but they made it plain and clear they do not have time.
