The issue I see in my area is people just don't want to pay for care period. I mean my one DCM just left me because she found a SAHM with a toddler and was "babysitting" another toddler and is going to take 13 month DCG and full time hours for $30 a week. But mom has no handbook or contract with her. I told mom I wouldn't touch this with a ten foot pole and gave her all my reasons why including the fact there is NO contract about anything. But people here want to do that. I think hubby thought I was thinking of stooping that low because he said to me "well you can't lower your rate that much, at that point you might as well just do it for free". Um no dear I wasn't going there lol.
