    Nope ~ unlike Walmart and Costco who can offer cheaper deals to customers because they buy in large bulk from suppliers ~ it does not cost a provider LESS to provide service to siblings verses two singletons so offering a 'discount' comes directly out of my WAGE and well after expenses I only make just on minimum wage as it is so not prepared to give away more of that!

    Plus while they help to fill two spots in the beginning at the end of the relationship when you are use to budgeting for the income when they leave your income takes a sudden nose dive of 2/5 until you can get the space filled so they are a larger income risk than singletons!
    Children construct their own intelligence. The adult must provide activities and context, but most of all must be able to listen. Children need proof that adults believe in them. Their three great desires are to be listened to, to understand, and to demonstrate that they are exactly what we expect."
