breaking up is hard to do

nixieknox3

i just had to break up with a kid that i babysit for. she is just too close in age to DD2 and is too needy and it is causing me way too much unnecessary stress.  she is a sweet kid, but freaks out if i am out of her eye sight for even a second.  

she fell down the stairs because she followed me upstairs while i had to throw DS's poopy pants in the washer. i can't even walk out of the room without her having a freak out and she gets jealous when i hold or feed DD2.  her mom is a single mom and i know this is causing her extra stress, but i have to think about my family too.  i feel like the bad guy and this majorly sucks.
