I would call everyone in ASAP. First of all its illegal to withhold any food or snack for any reason. Based on that alone I would place a call to DCF.

As for the other issues clearly they are cause for concern. Have you talked to the director? A lot is missed because the classes are crazy with all the kids and lets face it a 6 -1 or 12-2 ratio is ridiculous. We had a multitude of issues with our first daycare and could never get them to tell us what happened.

I once went there ans M was missing???? I have to tell you that if I had a weapon other than my razor sharp tounge I would have leveled the place. You are totally right to feel outraged. Make a list of exactly what he said in detail. Call the peditrician regardless. Of course they would report it whatever it is if there is something to report and frankly you would want that because it might protect another child. I would just casually investigate with your son as well. I know with mine, he is easilly led when I question him so I have to be super careful about it.

Take deep breaths and remain as calm as possible. My last straw was when I picked up M from school and they said "Oh hi! we were going to call you" "M hurt his neck".... What the F !!!!! I ran to the classroom and he had lacerated his neck when he tied a shoe lace from a learn to tie your shoe board around his neck hours earlier. Let me tell you I was in lock and load mode and was certainly capable of heinous acts upon everyone involved! He was sliced from ear to throat. He never went back. 3 years later and I still have the same feelings about it as I did then. Friggin ridiculous!

My heartfelt prayers are with you! I will close in saying that its pathetic as parents that these crap daycares are the best we can do for America's future! UGGH!
