[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FT preschool (i assume you mean 9-5 daycare) us asking a lot of your 3 yr old. That will be a super long day and a hard transition from what he's used to. Throw in TWO new (and needy)baby siblings and it will be miserable.

Is the coop preschool shorter? Like 9-12 MWF- type?  Have you asked about parent commitment? Not all coop are the same so just bc you both work FT doesn't mean you still can't be part of the classroom experience. [/quote]

Agree. 
[b]"FT preschool" = daycare[/b].
Preschool only lasts a few hours a day, preferably in the morning when the kids are fresh and ready to absorb the experience.  By afternoon, they are worn out.  It's a lot to put on a little kid.[/quote]

OMG, not this AGAIN. I don't know why stay at home moms are so offended by the concept of full day preschool. It's a thing, it's not what you have for your kid, but it's preschool. Get over it. Get a life and stop worrying about stuff like this. You're so annoying![/quote]

I don't get SAHP vibes from the "no" posts. I get BTDT vibes. FT daycare might be a great fit or it might create new problems. Everything depends on the temperament of the child and the quality of the program. Regardless, if OP sends older child to FT daycare or preschool, everyone in the house is going to be constantly sick all the time. Nobody ever thinks about that when they switch from nanny/SAHP to a center.[/quote]

I believe the reaction was to labeling a full time daycare arrangement as preschool.  I’m not sure it’s SAHPs taking offense though.  I think it might be daycare parents.  Or maybe both.  But I think unfortunately “daycare” can be a bit stigmatized and where “preschool” is neutral to positive, which results in this silly argument.[/quote]
