A couple things. The daycare may want him to sign in and out because it is in the parenting plan that he be picked up from daycare, and who is to say that the boy even showed up at daycare for dad to pick up? I think he shouldve signed that he was in and out the same times and maybe make a note next to it stating the situation.

Also if your child is there 3 days out of a 5 day week, (is it always same 3 days?) if so when you signed him up did you agree to pay for full weeks care? I know in my daycare I only allow one week unpaid that the families may take. How hard would it be to fill those few weeks off with someone to supplement the income? I do give my family an option. If you find a child to fill your childs spot for the week, then you do not have to pay. Otherwise you pay for the slot he is there.

You may want to look for a part time daycare that just charges you when the child is there. There are still some out there. Good luck!
