[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a student with a sick baby. She applied for a childcare subsidy in January.  It took until mid-June before she had any success.  The father worked.  So he was no slacker, and her parents took time off work to help watch the baby so that she could continue with school.

Here's a kid who made a mistake (a big one, I'll add) but who still moved forward despite the obstacles she and her baby faced.  And yes, she's "legal," folks.

I don't believe for one minute that either candidate will truly level the playing field in this area.  There's too much red tape involved and too many people who need assistance.

In the meantime, here's a reminder about how Trump really feels - http://www.slate.com/blogs/xx_factor/2016/05/27/donald_trump_called_pregnancy_an_inconvenience_for_business_owners.html

It's not a nice or acceptable thing to say, but it is a true statement.  If your nanny told you that she was pregnant and taking 6 weeks off in 20 weeks (let's say she waits to announce), you would have to find a replacement to fill her position.  You would need to retrain someone on your childs likes/dislikes, schedule, family routine, etc.  It's okay, but it's an inconvenience.[/quote]
