[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Considering there is at least one and probably many more people on DCUM who regularly argues that babies and toddlers are BETTER OFF in daycare than they would be if a parent was home taking care of them full time it doesn't surprise me that many of you are mad at the OP for daring to say she will enjoy spending more time with her kids during this otherwise tough time.[/quote]
That’s what this is really about. They’ll drape it in concern for the poor (they don’t give damn about free lunch any other time and actively avoid schools with too many “FARM kids” as they call them in the school forums or hourly, low wage workers disproportionally affected), but it’s really about them being pissed they don’t look forward to dealing with their own kids and haven’t had to or wanted to for a long time.

You are embarrassing yourself. [/quote]

What is your deal?  Really?  Are you the same PP who keeps posting these nasty one-liners that add absolutely zero to any discussion?

Enough with the Misery Olympics.  The simple fact is that many of people are now at home with our families, minimally for two weeks but probably longer.  Discussing what to do with this time is reasonable.  It is not tone-deaf, it is their reality. People are anxious and uncertain, why not let some of them try to find silver linings where they can.

People like the PPs on this thread with their admonishments and name-calling are over-the-top.  What purpose do your diatribes serve?  Answer: nothing other than to make yourself feel superior.  
How do they help the less fortunately who struggle in this time?  Answer: in no way at all.  
What are any of you doing to help?  Most of you, nothing.

If you don't enjoy hearing other people talk about what they are doing at home with their families, stay off these threads.  Start a thread about what you and others can and will do to help make positive change for those who are more seriously impacted by this.  Otherwise, your nasty admonishments are useless nastiness that serves no purpose.
