[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand people who have children but don't have any interest in raising them. What's the point of having kids if you don't want to take care of them? Honest question.[/quote] Good Lord. Do you think the mom who has a kid in first grade and a preschooler is raising the preschooler but not the first grader? You don't have to be around your kids all the time to raise them. [/quote] DP That's true but there is a major difference between caring for an infant or toddler vs a kid in elementary school. That's like saying someone who has a housekeeper cleaning the house is doing the same thing as someone who cleans it themselves. I'm not sure why some working parents easily view all the other things they outsource as someone else actually doing those things but can't wrap their brain around the fact that if your kid is in daycare 8 or 9 hours a day that's not you raising them during those hours it's someone else.[/quote]
