[quote=Anonymous]So many people in this thread are focused on the bus aide. Contrary to the post above, she didn't enroll her kid in Miner. If she had, I'd be more sympathetic. It's probably a nearly impossible task to find child care beginning early enough to enable you to work on buses picking up children before school.

But that's not what the complaint says. Her child was in Stuart-Hobson--a middle school. After the beginning of the school year, mom aide and child moved to Maryland, but the child remained at Stuart Hobson. The following academic year, the child remained at Stuart Hobson.

So, the odds are high that the second year the child was in 7th or 8th grade and 12 or 13 years old. My guess is the child simply didn't want to leave her friends behind, so mom didn't switch her. IMO, hat's not a very compelling reason.

In any event, when a child is in middle school, it's not about needing free or cheap childcare  to be able to work at all. PG has middle schools. A quick google shows that those schools offer both before and after care. So, I think the Jean Valjean comparison is over the top.
