This is the only power they have in their lives. They don't want to have to face more competent candidates.[/quote]

We know. You’d rather have the bitter inflexible working mom brigade. Because everyone shares your personal opinions and you can empathize with those unlike yourself. You’ll open those childcare centers in an icy blizzard with 2 feet of snow so you don’t miss any billable hours. That’ll show everyone. [/quote]

No, but we will open them when it rains and will also open them less than 3 days after snow has ended.[/quote]

We at least won't keep them closed after high schools open up. Delays should really mean they open up 30 minutes before high schools so teachers have some chance to get to get to school without being massively late.[/quote]

Then, offer the minimum wage child care worker rides and get out to the school site with a shovel and clear it for everyone.  [/quote]

If people can get to high schools, why can't they get to elementary schools?[/quote]

What do high schools have to do with it?   If they are all delayed two hours or closed that gives the workers more time to get there or clear.   Why can’t you pay one of the child care workers to come to your house and uber them if they don’t drive.  Problem solved. [/quote]

You clearly don't understand how child care works or how high schools work. Do you work in Central Office because that totally tracks.[/quote]

Yes, I do and I’ve worked in child care.   Clearly you haven’t given your unreasonable expectations of minimum wage workers.  Bottom line you need a back up care taker.

[b]Your high school comments make no sense.  [/b]If you need child care you don’t have kids in high school.  [/quote]

Omg you are unbelievably clueless. Who do you think is staffing high schools?

[/quote]

The discussion is about child care and high school students don’t need child care so two separate issues.  Child care centers are not in high schools.  Everyone is on a delay from their original start times. [/quote]

Are you really so obvious that you don't realize at the exact same time kids were going into high schools, MCPS was still prohibiting child care operators from opening? They didn't get to operate on a delay. They had to close for the morning. Why? We'll probably never know because the BoE isn't going to ask questions that make him look incompetent.[/quote]

One has nothing to do with the other.  Many am child care workers have other jobs so they also may not have had the staffing. [/quote]

Now you're changing your argument. You concede it was safe, but think people had to go to other jobs?

That sounds like an issue for the child care provider when they're hiring for the job. I don't know any that wouldn't open when MCPS let them.[/quote]

No, it’s an issue for you as you are demanding child care outside the agreed times [/quote]

If you weren't a SAHP, you'd know the providers specifically tell parents to they'll open on delays when MCPS lets them. But you seem to revel in your ignorance. That's probably also why you couldn't hold down a job.[/quote]

Of course I know that.  But, Mcps determined it was a safety issue as it’s their property so you need a back up like the rest of us.

So, please post your BOE candidate website.  Thanks[/quote]

Being unemployed isn't a back up plan, but I'm sure you've spent your whole life coming up with excuses for why you couldn't work.[/quote]

The issue isn’t if I work or not, the issue is your needing a child care back up plan.  I have one, why don’t you.

Since you feel you can do better as a working parent, go ahead and run.  Share your website and platform so we can all support you, if appropriate. [/quote]
