Termination w/out notice
I was just reading thread "complaining parent" (hope that gets sorted!) and it made me think of something I've been meaning to ask
I'm not sure about this at all so don't quote me but I seem to remember someone having gone through a similar thing (refusing to offer childcare for non-payment).
I think that unless there is a very serious issue (like safety or well-being of family member) that you cannot refuse to mind a child without giving proper notice. That puts YOU in breech of contract. I know, I know, I know that they broke the contract first by not paying when they said they would but legally speaking, you have to give them a certain amount of time to get their account current before taking action. I think it sucks and I could even be totally wrong but be careful about refusing care for late payment w/out taking legal advice.
Does anyone else remember this topic coming up before? In fact, I'm half inclined to phone NCMA myself tomorrow and ask about it. It seems insane that we could be the ones in trouble simply by refusing to continue providing a free service for deadbeats but I keep vaguely remember someone on this site talking about this before.
Why is "phonics" not spelled the way it sounds?
