[QUOTE="Andy, post: 282859, member: 5096"] If they are refusing to provide care for her while the others are on the field trip, then you should not have to pay for those hours. It is one thing to require a minimum amount of hours be paid per day but once that includes time that they would refuse to watch, that is wrong. I believe if you are to pay a minimum amount (and places around here are asking for atleast 40 hrs per week minimum so part timers can't find day care) then they best be available that entire time. I would suggest keeping your other child in that day care since she is happy there and finding a smaller setting for your older difficult child. Your younger daughter may need the break from her sister's behaviors and will feel it is not fair that she was taken away from a fun program because of her sister's behaviors. I am thinking that maybe your older difficult child is not comfortable about all the field trips. She may not like being introduced to so many places and needs more time to transition. Because she is 8 yrs old, the staff may not see the importance to help her with this and being summer, the attendance is probably high so staff don't want to spend the time she needs with her? I am wondering if she would be happier in a small day care without so many field trips and less kids? [/QUOTE]
