Cry a river, build a bridge, and get over it

[ImprovedRomeo]

So my day turned a bit sour yesterday as soon as I got this new communication from her L which is all vague and confusing:


My client reminded me that we have not dealt with non-school time daycare in the summer and when school is out on the various recesses and holidays. In the attempt to have an order with the utmost clarity we suggest that Mr. R pay the rate of 1/2 of the after and pre-school care at the public school. We can clarify that during the school year (not including non-school days) Mr. R's portion would be $x. Is this acceptable? I will have my client advise the cost of summer and holiday times when there is no school and provide you this information at your earliest convenience


I'm tempted to tell my L to write them something like this:

"My client has been more than flexible and fair in this proceeding. Mr. R has already agreed to pay 1/2 of the day care expenses during school. At this point Mr. R can't make any further financial committments until the case is brought before the court for a final settlement. In the interest of the minor I suggest that both your client and mine pay for any non-school related activities individually as they deem necessary.

Hope you have a wonderful day in hell!- Mr. R's atty."
