[quote=Anonymous]I have no idea what these parents were thinking, but a quick story: I'm a highly-educated middle class professional who had my kids in my mid-30s when I was well prepared (emotionally and financially) to do so. I had a nanny, who left suddenly when her husband was reassigned. I had a nanny share lined up when the other family backed out due to the nanny deciding she wanted to start over with babies instead of toddlers. Centers were a nonstarter, so I ended up putting my child into a less-than-optimal home daycare while I struggled to find other options. Basically, the childcare crisis is real and even "good" parents sometimes end up crossing their fingers and hoping for the best. This poor family. [/quote]
