I spoke with the school regarding transportation for my son to be taken to the boys and girls' club next year. Since he has an IEP and he's Special Education, I thought he would qualify for the busing program, since difficult child 1 has been taking that bus for several years. I was just informed that difficult child 2 does not qualify for the bus since he is in RSP classes. Apparently a child has to be in SDC classes to be able to take the Special Education bus. difficult child 1 is in mostly all ED classes so she qualified right away. Unforntunately even the Asperger's diagnosis isn't even enought to qualify difficult child 2.
So the boys and girls club, which is free, is not an option for him. Right now he is going to a before and after school daycare that is on the school site and very expensive. I am paying $300 just for him to be watched an hour before school and two hours after school. I am VERY behind in my payments. I owe well over a thousand dollars. Yesterday when I picked him up the daycare supervisor informed me that my son is not going to be accepted next year. I owe too much money and they would need the entire balance paid off plus the first month of September's tuition. I do not work in the summer so there is no possible way I could make payments.
I can barely afford paying them anything as it is with me working. I do not work at all in July and August and I basically live off of child support and a very small savings in the summer. There is no possible way I can come up with that kind of money. I don't know what I'm going to do about this. If I don't have daycare for my son, I will lose my job. Even if my son did qualify for the boys and girls club, they are only open after school and I would still need him to be watched an hour before school by the school daycare center. Now that they say I am not welcome back in September, I have no other options. So either way I'm screwed. I don't know what I'm going to do. I am going to call the district supervisor and see if I can make extra payments next year, but I'm not very hopeful she will let me. Besides, I simply can't afford it anyway. Just when I thought things were looking up, more bad news comes along.
