Yeah I might have to start doing the absent after a certain time thing.

It is absolutely ridiculous that this parent thinks it is OK to say "oh well we will be here anytime between 9:30 and 11:30." Like it is no big deal for us to have to wait for his child for that long. I usually leave the house with the kids anyway hoping that one day the parent will have to be waiting on me because I am not home. It hasn't happened yet.

I have also thought about charging late drop-off fees. I charge for late pick-up and I never have a problem there.
