To be honest. after 6 years during the early 90s I stopped taking care of children NOW 10 years later I find the shoes on the other foot as far as parent/provider ratio. A whole lot of things that have changed. I am charging twice as much as I did back then however the parents want three times more than what I have to offer today.
Completely see your point. I think I'll change it so it references more that they need to follow what they have scheduled with me. Thanks for that!
