[quote=Anonymous]I don't actually know anyone who does this either but I live in the DMV in a suburban neighborhood with most people having a HHI of $400k or so, so they can afford childcare. I do see it on social media. I think it's a combo of not wanting to spend the money/not having the money, having unrealistic expectations of how much a baby needs, and having a job where it is kind of possible to do it. I feel badly for the women who do this. I got a hefty dose during COVID against my will WFH with a 1 and 3 year old and no childcare and my mental health was in the toilet. [/quote]
