[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the traditional pre-school model of 2 yo- 2 mornings a week, 3 year old, 3 mornings, etc is probably developmentally appropriate. We all work for 40 years now it seems like it should be much more reasonable to take 2-3 years off for early childcare. I really liked the point about dads being just as good as moms at early care. Imagine if mom and dad each took a year off for their kid. If it was normalized in our work culture (like the ceo who climbs k2) instead of penalized. Kid starts preschool at 2. It would make a big difference in behavior outcomes I bet. [/quote] I wish this were the case too. I know it's all "personal choice" but for many of us that choice is one OR the other, career OR home with kids for a year. My friends in Canada in the same fields have significantly better "choices" than I do. Still doesn't get you to 3 or 4 without childcare though. [/quote]
