    Sitting waiting for a long term Dad to arrive to 'negotiate' an already very generous contract. I will not back down (I hope)

    Did you not leave him several notes, text and phone to remind him?

    Stand your ground, don't let him dictate how you run your business. Good child care is worth every penny, and lets face it we charge less an hour than a cleaner. I would tell him you don't haggle over childcare fees like you do selling a second hand car.

    Well.............. no show! Just phoned him and he said oh I never got away early and knew you were getting hair done so thought I wouldn't come.

    Asked what he wanted from contract and after a chat he said no it's OK we'll just keep things as they are! Why have me stressing about it all week? Ah well, saves any upset to lo.
