[quote=Anonymous]OP, I think a lot of people who bend themselves sideways to arrange being home or to have a nanny or whatever are going to of course convince themselves all the headache is totally worth it so their kid isn’t in extended care or whatever. And I’m not saying it’s not the right choice for their family. But I think there’s a lot of justification going on when you arrange something like that. And like a lot of PPs said, an extra hour per day in care is going to have a negligible effect compared to your children having a happy mom and potential financial advantages later on. I say this as someone who is mommy tracked and doesn’t use extended day. But I will admit that is for me because I don’t want to work longer hours in a harder job. My kids would honestly be fine if I ramped up at work … I just don’t want to for me and I can admit that.[/quote]
