[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s not a lack of childcare that’s the problem; it’s that these women want to have it both ways. They don’t want to pay anyone else to watch their children, they prefer to fleece their employers.[/quote]

There are plenty of before and after care options. People just don’t want to pay. Though it’s the responsibility of mom and dad, not just mom, in ideal circumstances.

Completely depends where you are, all the daycare centers that offer full daycare are at capacity around me. Preschool runs until 3pm at the latest. [b]There is a waitlist for the school offered after care if your kid is school age[/b].[/quote]

There is a waitlist if you sign up today. If you had signed up years ago when your kid started K, you would be off the waitlist by now.

Look, I totally get that people wanted to save money on childcare and have their kids home with them. But just own it. Own that it was a choice that you intentionally made. It was great while it lasted but now you have to pay the piper and it’s not everybody else’s fault/problem.[/quote]

So you think a kid who has a parent at home after school should spend years in aftercare just in case?  I doubt a program with a wait-list would let you pay for a spot youre not using.  I do not think that is rational.[/quote]

They could actually use the spot. We have plenty of neighbors who do that. They actually have to do work at home so they can't pop out to the bus stop or get snacks out or host a playdate while "working".

Again, this is on parents who thought they could F around and found out.[/quote]

I work from 7 to 3:30.  DH gets the kids out in am while I am working (in my office in the basement with the door closed.  I rarely see them).  I pick them up at the bus 30 minutes AFTER the end of my work day.  This is what most parents do.  Do you have plenty of neighbors who keep their kids in aftercare when they are not working?  I do not think DCUM approves.  [/quote]
