[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Opening some childcare centers and not others would be very inequitable. What about people who live upcounty and get their streets plowed last.

Just because your neighborhood is prioritized first, doesn't mean that everything should be able to revolve around you. [/quote]

I honestly can't tell- is this post a joke?[/quote]

No it's not. Just reflect and think. People need to understand that this is MCPS, in all CAPS. It's not just your own bubble that dictates these decisions. Have some heart.[/quote]

Child care programs inherently aren't "equitable" in the way you're trying to use the term. You have to pay to
use them.

Should we close down all child care programs until they're universally accessible?[/quote]

That's how it should be for childcare that is non-MCPS run. It makes sense that if MCPS is closed, then activities in MCPS buildings should be closed. Everyone around the county pays to use childcare programs. Why should the child care near you be open while less privileged families are unable to send their children to childcare due to unplowed roads and schools? [/quote]

If Taylor wants that to be the policy, then he should say that. But Montgomery County and neighboring counties have never taken the all-or-nothing approach to paid child care.[/quote]

Mcps is closed due to safety.  You need a back up plan. What do you do holidays and summers?[/quote]

I pay for child care, just like I am right now. Except the child care I'm paying for isn't being allowed to operate. [/quote]

Apparently on top of the 600$ a month we pay for childcare, including for backup care when schools are closed, we need to find a good backup to our backup care which MCPS won’t let operate.  [/quote]

+1.  Totally ridiculous.  [/quote]

Isn’t every childcare in the county closed right not?  They all follow MCPS.  The two childcare programs in my neighborhood are shut down.[/quote]

Not all of them. Ours has stopped following MCPS. They closed Monday and yesterday but open today. Some don't follow MCPS at all, it isn't the law they have to close when MCPS does. Only the ones in schools HAVE to follow MCPS.[/quote]
