Im really upset with one of my parents.
I asked all of my parents to let me know with as much notice as possible what they want for the Easter holidays ( I don't contract a/s for school holidays but they need to book in with me as we get very busy)
well originally about 3 or 4 weeks ago one parent said she was booking her son in for all of the 7 days available ... then about 10 days ago she said actually Im going to put him in football 6 days (about £12. a day) could you collect him at 3.30 from leisure centre? I said well we are planning some outings so maybe once or twice but dont want to commit to a 3.30 pick up . so she said ok twice a week.
Not realising at the time , I emailed her saying I would only pick him up once a week on the Wednesday of each week (I have one leave at 1.30 on a Wednesday so couldn't go out anyway). So she agreed with me then that I have him all day on the Monday (1st week) and after football on the 2 wednesdays.
Now she has just collected him and said i made a mistake and football is on for 4 days next week so I dont need you on the Monday just the 2 wednesdays after football.... 4 days notice !!! Its not about the money but I have turned people away for these holidays , she often rings me at short notice and says can I have him till 7 and I never say no , she's often 10 15 minutes late, always pays late... i feel like a doormat, how can she mess me about like that!!!! :angry:
Should I say something????
I know it probably isnt as bad as I make out but it has really annoyed me!
