[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This topic has shifted quite a bit to discussing the actual profit margin’s of the day cares themselves. You HAVE to look at this objectively. Meaning are you paying for a service, and are you receiving that service? And what does the contract say. It does not matter if it is a daycare, personal trainer, lawyers office, or anything else. [/quote]

+1. I personally think parents who can (eg not if you've gotten laid off or had to hire a nanny) should continue to pay as a donation if they are told and trust that it will mean teachers will continue to get paid.  But to be actually charged for service you aren't receiving and threatened with losing your spot?  That's absurd.  [/quote]

I’ll disagree and say this is not an objective matter. You have to look at it ethically. My ethics say these are people who deeply care about my child and I will continue to pay to support them even if I’m not actively using their service. Your ethics may dictate different behavior. [/quote]

What I'm hearing you say is that you think parents should be forced to pay, while I am saying parents should pay if they can.  So if a parent needs to hire a nanny because they are healthcare workers, you think they should continue to also pay for their closed daycare?  Sorry, but that's absurd and self-centered.[/quote]
