[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] In one Bethesda school I know, it’s common for the teacher to be referred to as the “co-parent”. Once the caregiver/educator spends more hours per week with the child than the parents do, I think “co-parent” is accurate.[/quote] You’re nuts.[/quote] Which part do you not like? “Primary caregiver” is another term I’ve heard for whomever provides the most hours of care of a young child. Or course this can be either parent or other family member, a daycare worker, or a nanny. Perhaps it’s also worthwhile to mention that providing the “best” care, requires knowing the child, and what are the child’s changing needs. It’s next to impossible to know a child without spending many hours with her. You can’t expect to review some daily notes to make up for lost time spent together.[/quote] My war refugee relatives who were separated from their parents for years due to violence seem far closer to their parents than most of the spoiled children of the judgmental SAHMs of DCUM. Also, more functional.[/quote]
