The issue that I see is not really whether or not you are responsible for paying the day care provider but whther or not the day care provider may be responsoble for charges of child endangerment. If you do not believe that you should pay for the day care services for your child the day he or she was left unattended, you need to speak with the provider about your position.If you believe that given the violations of the provider that you are writing about that you should should not be paying for the agreed upon services, then you should not pay her that particular day.
