You pay to hold his space in daycare. Would you rather be ready to take him back to daycare only to find that in his abscence the daycare provider has filled his space? I am speaking for in home, which has limited # of spaces. I depend on this as my INCOME, the same way parents depend on their income to pay bills and put food on the table for their family.  If I am losing money and can not afford to, then yes, I would have to give an ultimatum. I do mine on a case by case situation. I have charged only half amount for summer if the parent says they want to come back, but if a parent tells me we will just take our chances, not pay and see what happens, such as the case that happened years ago in my daycare, I warned them that I may not have their space available in the fall. They took their chances, I got calls for care and filled the spot. It is NOT about being mean and vindictive, it is about keeping food on my table for my family. unfortunately it is a dog eat dog world out there right now and everyone is doing everything they possibly can to look out for themselves - parents and providers alike. :([/quote]
