[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DP but I have two co-workers who kept their infants at home for a full year while working full-time without any additional help (other than two WFH parents). One of them said she couldn't find childcare, the other one one said her mom was living with them (mom was definitely not living with them, we had mutual friends).[/quote] It’s like you are sad that two moms actually got to spend time with their infants! No work is as important as this. And if they left work they would have a hard time going back because of policies that are hostile to mothers (and to everyone frankly with all the endless interviews). I am glad infants are getting quality care instead of being in daycares [/quote] DP. If these women had the arrangement cleared with their employers, I would have zero complaints. But if they are taking advantage of the system, they are hurting all women in similar positions. We need longer parental leave, but the answer isn’t being paid for work while caring for a child. Also infants get quality care in daycare. It would be amazing if we had longer parental leave, but don’t make parents feel like their child isn’t cared for in a quality daycare setting. [/quote] Let’s not fool ourselves Policy changes won’t happen while our kids are little. Maybe our grandkids? Who knows [b]And even a quality daycare is worse than 1:1 with a loving intelligent woman[/b] It’s acceptable and doesn’t hurt the kids in the long run as there are so many factors at play but at least let’s be real [/quote] Enmeshed much? Your child is no longer a part of your own body. [/quote]
