[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think if you pick her up early one day a week she's not going to understand why you can't do that everyday.  Too confusing.[/quote]

She’s only little for so long and she wants her mother.  She’s not a soldier.  Do what you can to pick her up earlier, even if it’s just once a week.[/quote]

Well I certainly agree she wants her mother and is not a soldier.  If she was my kid she wouldn't even be in daycare but that's another story.  I still say that a young child will mostly not be able to understand why mom can show up early some days but not others.  Seems to me it could do more to provoke anxiety than to help the situation.[/quote]

Your kid would never be in daycare but you seem to think you know how to handle this situation. [/quote]

That is correct.  I've worked in a daycare center briefly and I provided home daycare for several years, I am well aware of what preschool children are capable of understanding due to my own experience and education.  Try not to take my reluctance to put my own kids in daycare too personally.[/quote]

Nobody takes your decision on how to care for your own kids personally.  They just don't value your opinion about how they raise their own kids.  Try to take that personally.[/quote]

That's a good idea.  Don't value the opinions of people who have provided daycare.  Ok.[/quote]

I think if you’ve read much of DCUM you’d know the quality of people who have provided daycare varies hugely. There’s nothing to say that your opinion is of particular value. [/quote]
