[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have three friends whose children are starting kindergarten with my daughter.  They will be dropping them off at 7:45 am, and not picking them up until 6 pm!!  These poor kids are going to be in aftercare from 2:30 on.  Why on earth would you do this to a five year old??

I don't get how they are comfortable only seeing their children about 2-3 hours a day.  It would break my heart.

What do others think?[/quote]

That your fake concern shows what a colossal [b]cuntasaurus [/b]you truly are. [/quote]

Word of the day -'cuntasarus'. Thanks for a much-needed laugh, PP.

I've stopped reading this thread at page 3, but I still want to add my two cents to the discussion. My husband has a chronic medical condition that requires expensive drugs, and he owns a small business meaning no good health insurance. So I work mostly for health insurance, otherwise we'd go broke paying for his meds pretty much out-of-pocket. If we lived in Canada, that wouldn't be an issue, but in this country, it is. With Obamacare's prohibition on discriminating based on pre-existing conditions things might improve, but health insurance provided by a big company still beats anything you could buy on the open market.

Before someone jumps in and says 'Oh, you should have married a healthy man before you decided to have kids', I want to say to those self-righteous assholes that karma is a bitch. You might want to keep that in mind.

I live in Canada. Meds you pay on your own if your workplace doesn't have coverage. 
The govt only pays for those over 65.
What are you talking about?

You could work and have your spouse be a SAHD.[/quote]

True. 
I'm Canadian and live in Canada. While I prefer our health care by a long shot, you still pay for meds out of pocket if you don't have separate insurance through work. There are some good government programs for low income households but generally meds are out of pocket. [/quote]
