one week unpaid for them - one week unpaid for me.

fortuntely, they take their vacation the same week i do so it works out well.

but i've said before, there are a lot of other factors to consider when figuring what's fair.

some people might charge half price for vacation, but also charge half price if the kids don't come for whatever reason.

i get paid full price if the kids come or not - except for that one week. if grandma comes to town, someone dies, or dad's off work - doesn't matter. i get paid - except that one week.

so just cus someone says they don't charge or they do charge, or charge half price doesn't tell you much unless you know the rest of the story - IMO.
