[quote=Anonymous]My husband and I both work out of the house and our 2year old attends daycare for 10 hrs a day 5 days a week. We stagger our schedules for pickup and drop off but this is still the least amount of time we could work out for him to be in daycare. We are extremely happy with our center and our son seems to be doing really well there. We both like our jobs so the timing is not likely to change any time soon.

So what's the problem? Every so often, today for example, I feel crazy guilty about putting my child in daycare 50hrs a week. I feel like perhaps there are times throughout the day where he just wants to be home relaxing or where he misses us. I feel like he's there longer than a lot of other kids. I feel like I'm less of a mother for having him there for so long.

He's given me no indication that he's unhappy so I don't know why I let myself feel this way. I'm not really looking for advice on how to change the situation,but maybe some insight on how to change my perspective. Thanks. [/quote]
