My written policy has a line that says "Pay to the order of____________" and a place for the parent to sign.
Parents that truly believe their child is trained and ready to wear underwear can send them in underwear IF they also provide a $300 deposit. If their child stays dry for two full weeks I will return the money. If their child has an accident, the money is used to have the floors professionally cleaned and another $300 is required or the child remains in Pull-ups/diapers.
Easiest way ever to manage this 'parent push back'.
