So basically here's the story. I have a parent who's daughter comes to my daycare. I've never had any problems with them following my rules. So Yesterday the parent came 50 mins late to pick their daughter up. Apparently it was a misunderstanding about who was suppose to pick her up. Anyways....the mother comes and I asked her to fill out a late slip. She said how much is it. I said $50.00 (my late fee is $1.00 per minute which she knows.) suddenly she had this attitude like that was so unfair signed her name and stormed out. This morning when the father drops off he pays the $50.00 and says that the mother wants to put in her 2 week notice because she feels as if I took advantage of her. Now I'm a very fair person I've had parents come later than 50 mins and we've always worked out some type of deal or I have some parents that just suck it pay. At this point I'm VERY upset. Have ever had this happen? Or how would you handle it?
