[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At least they have aftercare on some days? Our public school regular dismissal is at 1:40pm and they have no aftercare. You have to find a private provider. I think in general school isn't a great full time childcare solution unless you're rich enough to throw a lot of money at babysitters or have a parent with a very flexible schedule. :/[/quote]

School is not supposed to be full time childcare. [/quote]

I'm tired of all the a-hats on this thread with this response.  This attitude sucks and ignores the reality that the school day has never been updated to reflect the reality of a world where many, many families have two working parents.  The typical workday is 8-5.  Why has our society continued to penalize working parents with a bizarre practice of having school end several hours after the workday?  Or not at least having aftercare in place at every school until at least 5:30-6 on weekdays.

Stop pretending this isn't BS.[/quote]

Several hours BEFORE the workday ends.  Whoops.[/quote]
