Our center is not charging anything, although they have asked people to pay what they can and what they think is fair.

They’ve furloughed the staff because, with the extra $600 per week unemployment, it will supposedly be better for them than getting paid.

That may be true, but it has definitely made me less inclined to pay much while they are closed.[/quote]

I'm a parent. While the teachers might lose out on their medical insurance even if they get more $$ through UE, for the parents, that is more than fair. Really, zero? I'm surprised. It's the lowest I've heard for a center. The owner is probably still paying rent or lease fees, commercisl insurance to operate a business, they probably have food vendor contracts they need to break, and other costs I can't think of right now. My daycare center gave the parents only a 30% discount for April. I don't have any better alternatives at this time, so I'm guessing we are going to keep on paying what is asked. I can do May, but my fear is it won't open for June or July.[/quote]

ONLY 30%? You must be a miser.  How much do you think the margin is on preschool? They are losing money especially if they are paying their teachers.  Be grateful.[/quote]
