Payment for days not attended

[bright sparks]

Hi, when you are saying that "mom did not have school next day", does means she is a student?; I think it makes sense that she disagrees to pay when she is in a tight budget.

When you do your interviews you also have an idea of what the parents do for living; same as you I explain all during first interviews and when I notice certain situations such as: student budgets, single parents, or parents looking for new jobs, I give them resources to apply for subsidies which helps to come up with the difference until they can be established.

I was young and I was also a student we had only one income and it was hard.

I'm not sure how it is relevant what this parents financial situation is. It isn't about not caring, but she is running a business and they signed a contract. It is not appropriate to negotiate after the fact. If she didn't agree with paying when not attending then she shouldn't have signed and should have gone elsewhere. Life is hard but it doesn't mean you have to behave like this person is. Its disrespectful and rude. PERIOD.
