[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Posts like these make me think my kids are difficult. I have a 5 and 3 year old. I was about to have a nervous breakdown 1 week into closure. After 3 months our daycare opened. I sent them back day 1 and felt terrible when I learned how many parents were managing just fine at home. I have a pretty flexible job, so it wasn’t really that. [/quote] As two parents with flexible jobs and 5 and 3 year olds who are generally good kids, don't feel bad. They are WORK. My kids play well together but you get maybe an hour a day where they will do that without parental supervision, on a good day. You can't each do an 8 hour day on the job while watching both kids without eliminating much of your sleep and any time to relax. There aren't enough hours in the day. Everyone I know that hasn't sent their kids back has had a daily babysitter that they are afraid of admitting to or aren't actually working. [/quote]
