I have recently taken on a little who is such a wonderful little boy, however the same can not be said for the parents........ on the first day he was due to start at 9am and his mum didn't drop him off till 2pm (apparently they had overslept!) without even giving him his lunch
.
And secondly they were due to pay on Thursday but still have not received this and making excuses. i have given them the benefit of the doubt but it has back fired on me.
Am i right to feel let down by them and am tempted to send a text and cancel the contact.
Ring mum today. Tell her that you are sorry to have to do this so early in the contract but that unless she is able to pay the money over the weekend or when she drops off next week then you will NOT be able to accept the child. Avoid her trying it on i.e. dropping him then saying she'll pay at collection. Pre-empt it saying if you bring him with no money on Tuesday I will not take him until you return with the money as you had bills to pay this weekend and now you are unable to do so.
You've nothing to lose by beign this tough if you are considering cancellign anyway.
if you do what you've always done, you'll get what you've always got
