[quote=Anonymous]They will be fine. My two were in outside the home care from 7:30-6:00 from 6th months to middle school in the case of my oldest and 5th grade in the case of my youngest. Instead of playing with other kids in the neighborhood after school, they played with them in aftercare onsite at their elementary school. It wasn't perfect for my kids but it wasn't harmful to their development or temperament. They did enjoy the pandemic school years because they didn't have to go to a care program. My sons are very aware that moms are people too and that they may need or want to work. I think that will make them better dads and partners. If you have the option, at older ages, to let your kids come home right after school and be self-occupying, I do see value in that. [/quote]
