Fair point. I see it this way:

1. I find out my dayhome is closed without notice (which has happened to me) because they had too many kids. I felt inconvenienced and annoyed.

2. I find out my dayhome is closed without notice because of suspicion of child abuse. I feel scared, nervous and possibly relieved it's closed. Worrying about work and finding alternate means of childcare takes a back seat.

I read it as him complaining parents were reacting like I did in option #1 for the scenario listed in #2.

Regardless - we shouldn't derail.

Terrible news and I hope all the families who had children here are having conversations with their children.
