AITA for telling my boss that if she wants this little girl to be suspended, she can tell the parents herself

It's really sweet and compassionate of the protagonist to want to protect the little girl. But yes, a lot of the commenters are saying that it's still at the expense of the other children. They shouldn't be subjected to the tyranny of her just because her mother is in the hospital.

When I was growing up, my parents always made their schedules opposite so that my sister and I never had to be in daycare. To this day, I'm so thankful that I didn't have to grow up around other kids and their misbehaviors. Who knows what could have happened.

Woman insists 2-year-old girl is suspended from daycare after she bites her son, teacher refuses to suspend her due to her mother being in the hospital: “Have a bit of sympathy”
Ahoy there, lads and ladies. Anyone who works with children knows how difficult and tiring it is. It's probably one of the hardest jobs in the world. A normal 8 hour shift somewhere else can feel half as tiring as spending 2 hours with toddlers running around, crying, and destroying everything. You always have to have your guard up, you can't turn your back for 2 seconds without hearing a shatter, cry, yelp, or a myriad of other noises you don't want to hear. Children all have completely different personalities, and they're unpredictable. One could be a bully, teasing the other children and ripping things out of their hands. One could be the chaotic and misbehaving child, who just wants to run a muck and distract the teacher from being able to do their job. Long story short, children can be nearly diabolical, and working with them can create a situation for someone where they've extended their full energy.
In the story below, the protagonist is the lead teacher at a daycare for children under 2-years-old. She has a situation with a girl who loves to bite. Maybe she's a vampire, maybe she's misbehaving, but the teacher has a strong empathy and compassion for her since her mother was just sent to the hospital. The other parents and principal get involved when she bites the wrong boy. Read the full story below for all the juicy details.
