[quote=Anonymous]I'm on the board at my kid's day care, and I can tell you that those places are run on a razor-thin margin. If they raise tuition it is because their expenses have increased. The board agonizes about raising tuition even a small amount just so the employees can get 3% raises every year. A recent issue has been parents - many of whom are government employees - needing a break on tuition due to furlough. Very possible that your center will be less receptive to giving you a break on tuition if they have a lot of furloughed parents crying for relief. But, generally speaking, I don't see them giving you a discount "because the rent is too damn high". They set it the same for everyone, and it is what it is.[/quote]
