[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the prospect of an increase in the cost of daycare is enough to cause people to panic, then maybe that's an indication that their priorities about where they're choosing to live are misguided. DC is a premium location, and frankly, it's not for everyone. So if daycare costs are causing undue budgetary hardships, then perhaps you should consider living somewhere more affordable. This isn't hard to figure out [/quote] Sure, more affordable places. That don't have jobs. That's why they are affordable. I could live in a WVA coal town for SUPER CHEAP. But anything is expensive when you don't have a job.[/quote] Not to mention that as a proportion of income child care is expensive EVERYWHERE in the country. This is a national issue, not a D.C. specific one. And agree with PPs, what is essential for daycare is safety, nurturing, and appropriately stimulating environment. Don't need a college degree to deliver that. [/quote]
