Exactly, there have been a few issues this year, where some parents complained that two girls were getting a whole room to themselves, and that they should pay more than the others, and not have the cost evenly split. The simple answer was "they are part of the team, if the team goes, they go. If you don't agree to those terms, than don't come. Simple"
