I have a mom that lost her job but the kid has still been attending and her father in law has been paying for it. A few times she has said she might not be able to keep paying and he would have to quit. I would ask if that meant she was giving notice and she would say no and keep bringing him. This has been going on for 2 months now. The little one was supposed to be here Monday (payday) and he was a no show until I called to see if everything was ok. She said she would bring him tuesday. Tuesday repeat the same thing except she said she said she was out of money and needed to talk to her father in law so she could get the weekly fee plus late fee. Tuesday night she said he can't come anymore because she is out of money but wants me to hold her spot because she was hired at a job with an undetermined start date.

My issue is that I love the little fellow but the mothers constant instability is a major issue for me. I can not afford to hold the position and waiving the 2 week notice is a sacrifice as it is. I need to respond to her request about holding the spot but I don't want to come off blunt or rude. Can you help me write a nice response?
