[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 2 year old is in full-time daycare in my work building.  I love that there are others influencing my child; his providers have been incredibly loving and are teaching him self-sufficiency like I never could.  They taught him how to get dressed, potty-training, serving himself food, etc.  These are things that I probably would have just continued to do for him for quite awhile.

Do I feel pangs of guilt for leaving him sometimes?  Yes, definitely, but less so now than when he was a baby.  That said, I'm incredibly grateful for the care that he receives and it has definitely been the right choice for our whole family.

I hope tomorrow feels better- could you cut out a little early for some extra cuddling/playtime today?[/quote]

This is how I feel about it.  I had some guilt when they were infants, but once they were toddlers and up, the benefits were obvious.  My kids made some great friends, we met other nice families, they have strong bonds with former teachers, etc.[/quote]
