[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the teacher who posted before. I think a big part of the issue here is that people expect someone to pick up the slack for them in terms of childcare. I'm a single mother and I pay a lot for before and after school childcare for my DD and I paid a lot for daycare before she started school. At no point did I think, "Gee, I really think the government needs to help me out here." I made the choice to have a child and made sure I had the funds to raise her.

Everyone benefits from well-educated and wel-taken care of future adults..[/quote] [b]Mo' kids equals mo' bennies!![/b][/quote]
