[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you think your experience (feeling guilty or not) has to do with how outgoing your kid is? My first two are introverts and really crave the quiet, my second two are super social. I felt so guilty about leaving my oldest two, and not at all with my youngest. I imagine it has to do as well with being a more experienced mom and I knew a few hours here and there of less than ideal wouldn’t kill them… but I just keep reading the posts that say, my child made so many friends/hates when I pick them up etc… and that is only true if your kid likes being in a group, no?

Truly curious.

Mostly SAHM but worked part time when they were young and now work 3/4 time. [/quote]

Yes. I definitely think the kid's personality is a huge part of this. Age as well - both of mine had the worst time between 1 and 2 when they had a lot of separation anxiety but weren't really old enough to make friends. Preschool years are a different ball game.[/quote]

Yes for sure. Both mine are very social and people who know we could afford a nanny seemed surprised we went the day care route but it truly was a good ft for my two. The more extroverted one can handle longer days, my younger is more introverted and enjoys time to decompress [/quote]
