[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They should either find another family or be willing to pay a singleton rate; not the single rate of a share. I would start looking for another job or assist them in finding a share family.

And to add, I couldn’t possibly go from $20 to $10 or $25 to $12.50 and hour. If you make $20, I wouldn’t go below $17/18 and $25, no lower than $20. At the end of the day, it’s about what you can afford. You have to do what’s best for you just like they will do what’s best for them. [/quote]

To clarify, they would pay the rate for a singleton, not the single rate of a share. It will probably be three dollars an hour less. They hope to find another family, but it's hard to find the right age kid and I don't really want to do a toddler and an infant.[/quote]

Well, we don't know your budget...It sounds like that would decrease your pay by around $120 or more per week, depending on how many hours you work.

What would you have to cut back on (or eliminate entirely) to accommodate that?   Would you still be able to make rent and other essential bills?   Have enough funds to go out and do things you enjoy (hobbies, nights out with friends, vacation, etc?)   Would it jeopardize your ability to save for your own next egg/emergency fund?[/quote]
