Thanks, Succulent and JB! The more info and experiences, the better, and I'm definitely learning a ton from you guys! 
Update: I just spoke to the dad of a prospective student, he seems incredibly nice, flexible, reasonable, and sensitive to MY needs. I'm meeting the family tomorrow evening, but it sounds like I've got the job as long as the student and I connect. Oh, and the dad's a lawyer, so I'm feeling really confident he values time, policies, and fairness.
As it turns out, this family's best day and time is the same as the crappy client's, so I'm not losing anything by getting out of that situation (and if I'd been stuck with them, I might lose this one).
It always works out for the best!
