[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]6am-8pm with your children everyday, no childcare, how would you do? [/quote] Hasn't this been nearly everyone for the majority of 2020?[/quote] Nope, a lot of us sent our children back to daycare. The idea that women's jobs are so unimportant that they should just stop doing them for a year (or neglect them while they care for their children) is pure misogyny. [/quote] Yep. No reason to suffer if you/your family are not at high risk of severe COVID. My child is in daycare and has had either daycare, grandma babysitting or a nanny throughout the pandemic. Healthy toddlers are likely to get mild symptoms with COVID, and no one else in my household is high-risk. If this were polio or flu, I might think differently. But the work-life balance benefits of having full-time childcare outweighed the COVID risk for us.[/quote]
