Ok folks, here's my newest question to everyone. I have a child who is leaving on the 17th. This was my first client and our contract had payment due for the month on the following 5th day of the next month. Since then, a year ago, I have put all other clients on a pay in advance in two week increments contract.

I requested that this parent pay me for June's childcare on the 17th, the child's last day of care. The parent was p.o.'d about that. I then requested a post-dated check for the 5th as an alternative. They didn't want that and said they would talk to their spouse about it.

What are your policies on something like this? Is it unrealistic for me to expect payment before the last day for a child that is leaving?
