I require payment in advance on drop off monday or you cannot stay. So, I called mom and she came and took him. I do have a replacement but what I am asking is do you all normally given them a certain amount of time to pay or dismiss asap? If you dismiss like today, do you still charge them the tuition?
If i were to do care for them this whole week I know they would not pay. They have been borrowing money for weeks now for daycare. I get all these checks from different family members. This morning she hands me a check off her account and I had a gut feeling it was going to bounce. I was right...really the child is very disruptive and hurts the other kids. He is over 2 and is not potty trained yet, stabs kids with crayons in the eye, pushes others down, messes in everything, takes toys away, and is very bossy...Is is unreasonable I give her till 6:00 today to pay or she is dismissed?
I would give her until this evening to pay, and then I think you are fair to term is this is an ongoing issue.
But payment and crappy behavior from dcb are two different things. Pick one and go with it. If you stick with payment and she doesn't pay, term. But I wouldn't charge her for the whole week - you're most likely not going to get it anyway. Why waste the time, effort, and energy getting upset about it?
