I agree with others when they say why would a parent want to pay for care when they can be at home for those weeks over summer, but on the flip side I cannot realistically take that kind of a pay cut or even just have them pay a lesser fee so they can come back. People would flip out if their employer decided to only pay 50% of the wage if they were on vacation.

I am just personally struggling with wording. I like the family, their son is a great addition here and to get someone to fill those two months seems silly with the ages and situation of my current kids here. I have a small group (only 3 kids) and they are all the same age so adding a school age kid would be inappropriate for me and that child. They'd be bored out of their mind and none of the current activities we do would be age appropriate. Lol.

So I'm struggling with how to word it. I guess just being to the point and matter of fact is best and most beneficial for all. The full time child care fee is what is is and if you want the f/t space held for two months then the fees are due. If you want to withdraw your child and re-register for September then they just have to keep in mind that space may be filled and no new space may be available.

so confused!!
