Refusal Letter Assignment

Day Care Expulsion

You are the owner and director of a successful day-care center. “Grandma’s House” started with six children and has grown to a capacity of 65 children. The reputation of your center is so high that there is a waiting list of 78 children. Families are beginning to register their children for your center when they are expecting! As the director and owner of the center, you are now faced with a problem that you have not encountered in your eight years of running the center. You must expel a child from the center, and you must write a letter to the parents explaining the reasons and your position.

Write a letter to Mr. and Mrs. Brady telling them that their two-year-old son, Brett, is being expelled from Grandma’s House. Brett entered your center two months ago and things haven’t been the same since. This child gives new meaning to the term “terrible twos”: in his two months in attendance, he has bitten six children (causing one child to require stitches); kicked a teacher; and scratched, hit, and pulled the other children’s hair on a regular basis. The child’s vocabulary consists of every four-letter word known to the English-speaking world. Seven other parents have threatened to pull their children out of your center if Brett does not leave. You have had several conferences with Brett’s parents, but no changes were seen in his behavior. Mr. and Mrs. Brady seemed reasonable, but concerned about the future of their son. Write the letter to the Bradys using the strategies from BC chapter seven. Remember that this is the Brady’s only child, so figure out your audience before writing your letter (BC chapter two).
