[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess the question is, is there ANY sacrifice you want to make to avoid having your kids in daycare 40-60 hours per week since birth? I read all these justifications about retirement, vacation days, and a promotion and it all looks good on paper, but is there any value calculation to what your KIDS are losing? Is the concept of sacrificing some money and a promotion for kids you chose to have really not a consideration at all? [/quote] I worked 6-2:30. My H worked 10-6. So my kids were with an aupair from 9-3... about 30 hours minus naps and preschool about 3-4 hours a day. Also, since the aupair lived in, I did not have to wake the kids to get them to daycare. Also, she was able to work on Saturday since she worked 30 hours per week and my H and I could go on a date every week.[/quote]
