Charge Late Fee or Not

He did this morning at drop off. Hes the type of person who can not take care of anything without his wife there to tell him how to do it. It’s weird. But she’s being released today so we will see how it plays out. She’s been verbal about wanting to be a SAHM but can’t afford it right now (but went and purchased brand new truck 2 nights ago) so we will see if this gives them the push to make it somehow work for her.

Second child?

There is a fundamental change that occurs when a family adds a second child.....

I would take amberrose3dg's advice and start advertising to fill the spot because this is where DCM's usually start behaving badly so they get termed and thus become SAHM's as they had no choice.

It's a 'behavior' many veteran providers can spot a mile away!

Maybe you should be interviewing then just in-case.

This was kind of what I was thinking. I definitely don’t think DCG and baby would come and after she has the baby will withdrawal older sibling but with the complications she’s having I think they will do it sooner than they planned. I’m going to start advertising this evening!

I thought I got a whiff of it in the first post. Drama creation to force DCD's hand into agreement is a very common tactic.

Pretty much. She “couldn’t keep anything down”

Me either. I even had Oligohydramnios from being so dehydrated from morning sickness. I was just monitored a little more closely and had extra ultra sounds but still went back to work after a few weeks off and reduced my hours.

They also haven’t taken DCG to visit mom because it could be too stressful for DCG and traumatize her and stressful for mom while she needs to rest. 🙄
