[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What's making me laugh are the rootless yuppies who eagerly move away from all of their family to spend their 20s and 30s in a big city. Boast about big city living, blow money and time on hip dinners and brunches, wanderlust traveling as if they're a perpetual college sophomore, and a posh apartment with all the accoutrements. But then whine they couldn't possibly have children when they're more than old enough to do so because they can't afford a baby sitter. Wait, I thought you moved away from family for a great big city career? But the career i.) doesn't provide free on-site child care and/or ii.) doesn't pay you enough to afford it? Sounds like you might as well have started a career closer to family, so they could help with childcare. But that was too boring, right. You wanted what Carrie Bradshaw had. Lean in, sweetie.[/quote] YES!!! Finally you get it! YES, that was too boring! I didn't have a posh apartment or many hip dinners, but will *never* regret the adventures and fun days of my 20s! Also, I am in my 50s and the only place that provided low-cost daycare was base daycare when my husband was active duty Air Force. I also want to know about these mythic on-site free day cares![/quote]
