[quote=Anonymous][list][quote=Anonymous]While many family have two working parents, there is a large number of SAHPs, and for a lot of families one parents job has a ton of flexibility.

At afternoon pickup, it’s mostly parents picking up, with maybe 30% nannies— that’s actually what I would recommend - go this spring to see how many parents are at pickup vs other caregivers and tour the aftercare.

At our school, the challenge if both parents work and you don’t have a nanny is that the kids are left out of after school activities that are organized by the parents in the grade (so not school activities) which are scheduled after school but during typical work hours.

Also lots of breaks/days off. Fine if you have a nanny, tough when your kids are young and you can’t take all of the days off work. [/quote]

I’m sorry but this is a flat out ridiculous post.

Are you seriously suggesting that OP go stalk the carpool pickup line this spring and count how many mommies versus nannies are there?  And then do what with this information? [/quote]
