Legal Question in Business Law in Georgia

Daycare payment for not attending

I was told today by my child's daycare that even though he will not be attending the nursery (due to holidays) for the next two weeks, I will still have to pay for those 2 weeks daycare fee.

When I told the owner of the Daycare this, she told me to look into the Daycare agreement that I signed when I first enrolled my child into her daycare. She stated that it was written in the contract/agreement.

Although, what she stated is written within the Daycare contract/agreement- In my mind, this is ridiculously illegal.

Please give me some advise or something that will clear this confusion up.

Thanks

Re: Daycare payment for not attending

Adults are generally free to contract. If one does not agree to the provisions, or think they are "ridiculous," they should not sign. I am not sure why you believe something you presumably agreed to would be "illegal," or where the "confusion" lies.

The contract is neither illegal, immoral or otherwise objectionable. It is simply the agreement that you and she entered into. If you didn't like it, you should not have signed it.
