Not all college students have the luxury of not working that your daughter has.  Many have to work for rent, car payments, groceries etc.[/quote]

Yes, exactly. I cant pay more than minimum wage. Min wage in PG county is 11.50 x 40 hours =460 plus taxes? so 500x4=2000/mo. I pay 240/week for my 2 year old including meals for a licensed in-home daycare provider who does arts n crafts, music, yoga, has a obstacle course/playground in her backyard. Even the super ritzy centers in PG like Montessori, Celebree, Goddard cost less than 1500/mo for a 2 year old.

Given the choice between an 8-400 schedule with a crazy 2 year old and doing groc checkout in a 2-10 shift- its not a hard decision. [/quote]

Umm grocery store workers get hazard pay, paid leave, and health + dental.

Plus you’re mostly standing in one place with occasional haunts.

Kids are exhausting. I’ll take the grocery pay for full benefits. Or an Amazon warehouse that issues PPE.[/quote]
