Is it a jerk move to give notice to our daycare at this point?

This is my concern as well. If it was competitive before they all shut down, it’s going to be unbearable after

Fewer people will need child care/be able to afford preschool since so many will be laid off.

Also, these businesses will reopen when this is over, or others will take their place.

Commercial real estate is already soft and the impending recession (at best) ain’t going to make it better. Landlords aren’t going to kick out tenants because they can’t pay the next few months and will be happy to have them back when normal life returns. Most teachers will be happy to have their jobs back and others will be hired when necessary.

There will be bumps in the road, but there is no reason to believe there will be widespread disruptions.

You don't think what is happening right now would qualify as "widespread disruptions"? Millions of people laid off doesn't count as "widespread disruptions"? #DCUM privilege.

Get off your self-righteous outrage machine and read what I actually wrote.

PP’s were discussing the difficulties in finding care after the crisis abated. I argued that there would not be widespread disruptions because PREVIOUSLY CLOSED centers would be reopened or replaced.

I didn’t remotely suggest there weren’t widespread disruptions now. In fact, it is only because of those disruptions were we discussing the difficulties in finding daycare spots once this is over.

It’s a damn headache either way. Nailing down a school initially was exhausting.

Your posts are ridiculous. You're basically saying, "I'll be fine, my life will return to normal". Yes, the lucky folks who aren't laid off will probably still be able to find preschools and child care spots because so many people won't be able to afford them. Preschools and daycares absolutely will shut down. That's not "no widespread disruptions". That's massive widespread disruptions but yes, some people will be lucky enough to get the spots that other people can't afford/no longer need because they lost their jobs.

Also, you're suggesting nobody is going to be evicted. FFS. People get evicted all the time. You get that landlords regularly keep units vacant

Also, to suggest nobody is going to get evicted is just absurd. Trust me, people got evicted during the Great Recession and people will be evicted now. The law gives landlords the right to evict people who don't pay their rent, and plenty will do so.

No doubt. I just don’t think it will be substantially worse than normal once everything shakes out.

I didn’t say anything about my life in particular. You have no idea whether I will be able to afford daycare later or not. You don’t know how old my kid is and whether I will still need daycare.

You seem to be arguing two contradictory things. People won’t be able to get a daycare spot because so many will close. But then you argue so may people won’t be able to afford daycare. If there is actual a reduction in supply and demand, there may be an appropriate market equilibrium.

No, I'm saying people who need a daycare spot will be able to get it, because people who lose their jobs won't need the slot anymore. People who use preschool will be able to find a slot, because people who used to be able to afford preschool can no longer do so. What this means is an overall decrease in demand which means some preschools and daycares shut down permanently.
