How do I enforce a $55.00 late fee?
- I invoice my parents monthly so I'd add it to the next month's invoice. Or you could type up a bill and give it to them.

Do I charge the late fee?
- That's totally up to you. Were you unable to attend mass because of their lateness? Since you reminded them I'd probably charge something for a whole hour late.

It is a lot of money to hand over for a late fee.
- You're the owner and can do what you want. You could charge the whole amount, wait the fee this time, charge half, whatever. I don't think I'd charge the full amount but I would charge something. Just be prepared for them to expect the same thing if they're late again, unless you're clear that this is a one-time thing.
