[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Money is definitely a strong factor. Plus they can get work to agree right now that they can have kids at home. [/quote] There is no way this was written by a parent with a 1, 2 or 3 at home. Not a single working parent prefers to have NO SAFE CHILDCARE just because it’s cheaper. Not a one. [/quote] Disagree. My almost 4 year old is a breeze. My best friend's 10 month old is a breeze. Because we have kids at home, work lets us stagger our schedules and I can work later at night too. Work would give no flexibility if daycares were open. My 2 year old is hard as hell. But we're saving $700 a week. [/quote] Easy children, combined with flexible schedules from your employer, OF COURSE you're fine. But you are the unicorn situation. My point is that the vast majority of working parents would prefer to have options for SAFE child care. And we don't have any options. The only way this gets even harder for people like this, is when people on the outside start saying we are ENJOYING IT because we are saving money. No. That's a small benefit. But I'd rather have safe child care options and not be worried about losing my job, which brings in more money than childcare costs.[/quote]
