Frequently Asked Questions
for the Children in the Middle Class

Can I attend the class if I am not court ordered?

Absolutely, we have seen a large increase in parents and relatives taking the course voluntarily or through the recommendation of another professional.

Do I need to take the classes in order?
The class may be taken in either order, though we encourage you to attend Part I first.

Do I need to preregister for classes?

Yes. Payment is needed 24 hours prior to the start of class to secure your seat. We do not allow walk ins.

What type of payment do you accept?

Payments are made through PayPal via credit card and other options. Click here for payment.

What if I cannot pay through PayPal?
You may pay by cash no later than 24 hours prior to the start of class by calling (817) 479-0076 between the hours of 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday to arrange delivering your payment to the Children in the Middle office in Colleyville at 1205 Hall Johnson Rd. Colleyville, TX 76034. The payment must be cash and you must include a note with your name as you would like it on your certificate, an e-mail address to confirm receipt, and the date and time of the part or parts of the class you are paying for.

Can I take each part of the class at a different location?
Yes

Do you allow late admission to the class?

No. We encourage you to think of it as an airline ticket, the plane takes off at the start of class. We have a strict policy that prohibits late entrants to our classes. Doors are locked at the time specified as the start of class.You will be turned away at 6:01 p.m. for a 6:00 p.m. class. Sign in for the class begins 15 minutes before class starts, so we encourage you to plan to arrive early. If you are 2 minutes late for the class, you are actually 17 minutes late for the check in process. Your payment reserves your seat on the date you selected. Without prior notice to us via e-mail, if you do not arrive on the date you specify or you arrive late for the class, your money is not refunded or credited.

Why don't you let participants in late to class?
It is disruptive to the class and other participants when you arrive late for the class. We provide a certificate to the court indicating exactly how long you participated through the duration of the course.

If I arrive late, can I get a refund or will you apply my payment to another class?

If you do not arrive on the date you specify or you arrive late for the class, your money is not refunded or credited. Think of it as an airline ticket, if the plane leaves and you don't cancel in advance you won't get your seat refunded.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule my registration?

Simply notice us via e-mail at least 24 hours prior to the start of class. 24 hour written e-mail notice prior to the start of the class is required for cancellations or rescheduling of sessions. A $5.00 administration fee is charged per request per person which must be paid prior to confirmation of the requested change.

What if I need to leave early?
To earn a certificate, all participants must stay the full duration of the class.

What if I need special accommodations?

Please notice us via e-mail at least 48 weekday business hours prior to the start of class so we can explore the best solution for you.

Do you allow cell phones, pagers, or text messaging devices to be turned on during the class?

No. It is very disruptive to the class when cell phones go off during the class. If you are texting during the class you are not participating in the class and will be told to leave the class.

Can I bring someone with me to attend the class?

Yes, but they would have to pay to reserve a seat. There is no waiting area for anyone not participating in the class.

Can I bring my child or is childcare provided?

Neither session is appropriate for children. No childcare is provided.

Do both parents have to take this class at the same time?
We do not require parents to take the class at the same time, though some parents find it helpful to do so to start applying the information at the same time. However, a court may order parents to take the class together.

Is the class offered in foreign languages?

Currently, we don't have enough participants per month to sustain the class in Spanish or other languages. Please notice us at least 24 hours prior to the start of class, and we will allow you to bring an interpreter at no additional cost.

Do you close off registration for classes?

Class registration is cut off 24 hours prior to the start of class. In addition, if class size reaches maximum occupancy for any class, registration will be closed. We encourage you to pay now if you are considering attended either part of the class.


What if I forget my certificate?
Forgotten certificates are held for one month from the date of class. If you forget your certificate at the class, we will make the certificate available for you at the location you left your certificate. Please e-mail us to make arrangements. The certificate can also be mailed to you if you send a self addressed stamped envelope. If you are requesting a forgotten certificate after one month since the date of class or you want your certificate faxed or scanned to you, please follow the instructions below for a replacement certificate.

Can I get a replacement certificate?
Requests for replacement certificates must be made via e-mail. To receive a certificate, you must provide us with the date you took the class, the location you took your class, and your full name. There is a $5.00 administrative fee charged per certificate for replacement certificates.
