[quote=Anonymous]PP 13:36 = PP 13:08 In-between PP -- the open hours for the daycare are not for a child to spend both ends of the day, every day. They are there for choices. We do pay for SACC both morning and evening, but we're shiifting schedules so that kids don't spend more than 8 hours at school. The rest is insurance for the crazy week at work, the snow delays, etc. We've done the long hours, and we collected tired children who were unable to communicate or do homework or anything else once they got home. There's always 1 or 2 kids doing both ends, and who get picked up the last. But not more than that, in any daycare that I've seen. Some kids may be able to take this better than others. I have one who can, one who can;t. But neither really completes their homework in the higher grades, and reading is limited to bedtime. So... we do it when we must, but the flexible work hours and shifted schedules are how we manage. [/quote]
