Just a vent

Some people try and play the poor me card - they likely could afford it if they made a few changes. Not your problem. Your rate is your rate. I guess you can wait and see if she calls back. My concern though is if she is already telling you she can't afford your rate that she could potentially not have the money at some point down the line. If you do take her on make sure you get your contract signed and money (cash) before you take the child.
