It's a cycle that can quickly spiral out of control. Within a matter of months business owners who are lenient on receiving payments from their clients find themselves in the same boat.
After bills kept on mounting for a local couple who own two businesses one of them had to go, one that left parents scrambling to find another daycare provider so they could get to their jobs Monday morning.
The lives of a couple dozen children will now be different, including 3-year-old Hannah and 1-year-old Carson of Pocatello. Gerald Evans, Upset About Short Notice: "It's an environment they're familiar with and now that it's not the same anymore, it's going to be a little bit of a shock."
For fear the doors would be locked and the power would be turned off, the owners of the Odyssey Daycare in Pocatello of Yellowstone Avenue are scrambling to get their belongings out of the building that cost thousands of dollars to maintain every month.
Change is not easy but inevitable for the owners, the employees and the customers who never had a complaint and boast that their three year old daughter can practically spell out her name, all on her own.
Stormy Evans, Parent of Two Children: "It's hard because I felt like we were close enough that they could let us know something was happening."
