I do have one family that is getting the 40% plus more because we were friends. They still think they pay too much and now they are spending tons of money on stuff but tell me they don't know how they are going to pay me next week. Irks the c*&p out of me.l
You can always change it with your new contract. I put out a new contract, Jan. 1st of every yr. so anything that needs changed will go in then for the entire yr. I still give a sibling disc. for fulltimers, but not parttimers or fillins. My sibling disc. is $25.00 per day per child. My normal rate is $140.00 for infant, thru potty trained and $130.00 for the older children, totally potty trained. So it is roughly $20-$30.00 off per week.
