[quote=Anonymous]I can't imagine this is the first time they've done this. I imagine they've tried "smaller" things before (like leaving them home alone for a little bit etc.), gotten away with it, so that gave them the confidence to leave the kids on a public street in broad daylight. Who knows but just my suspicion. If it's just that they are want kids but are clearly over the screaming toddler thing and want to maintain their own lives, isn't it possible to get weekend nannies? Like have childcare 5 days/wk for work and evenings, and then have separate childcare lined up for 48 hrs on the weekend so you can come and go as you please? I feel like I've heard of wealthy couples in NYC having multiple nannies as shift-work, so that they can come and go when they want and don't ever have to miss events or be "stuck" with the kids if they don't want. I mean there are solutions -- particularly if you have means -- until the kids are old enough for boarding school.[/quote]
