[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think no one parent should have to deal with multiple children on their own for more than a couple of hours. So if you’re alone with 2 kids, of course you hire a helper. Or if you and DH have 3 kids, of course you hire a helper.[/quote] What? Really? And I ask that as someone who has a full-time nanny while her two kids are in school (I do work full-time). But my husband and I routinely take the two of them to do something without the other parent. Including for an entire weekend or longer. [/quote] And that full-time nanny has your two kids for times when she is caring for your kids and they are not in school (assuming you and YH don't work only school hours). I WOH part-time and am the SAHP part-time. When I WOH we have a nanny. She and I both have plenty of hours alone with 3 kids. And what about daycare ratios - they aren't one-adult-to-one-kid. Is it only parents who get a pass on dealing with multiple kids?[/quote]
