[quote=Anonymous]Op, enough already. As a pp posted, even if K started an hour or two earlier, it still wouldn't solve the child care needs of working parents (and I'm one fwiw.) most of us work 8 hours a day at minimum, plus commutes.... The point is that no one is ever going to design a 10-12 hour per day public school system, much less pay for one. So even if the county moved bus schedules around, you'd still be stuck paying for additional care. I suspect some of the OP's outrage derives from the fact thatlike a lot of us, the OP may have bought into the myth that these things get easier and cheaper once kids hit elementary school. Wrong! (okay, maybe it's a bit easier but there are all kinds of new costs .) Just wait till the OP figures out that summer camps can run into the thousands of dollars for a full summer and that many fill up by the end of January! Another conspiracy!!! [/quote]
