[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My wife wants to send our child to daycare at 4 months so that she can go back to work. If she waits an entire year she’s worried they won’t hold the job for her and she’ll have to start over again, and she likes her team. She works in education administration earning around 40k/yr. I make 250k. So we don’t depend on her salary and most would be eaten up by daycare costs, which would be about $1500/month in our area for an in home daycare. I’m okay with daycare but worry that 4 months is too young for our daughter as I’ve seen most advice suggest starting at the 1 year mark.

Interested in hearing people’s thoughts on this. [/quote]

If I were her, at her income, would take the risk of waiting 2 years so kid can verbalize his experience at the school. Also try to potty train him.

That being said, I wouldn't want my husband to tell me to do so. My career, my baby, my decision.

If you want her to consider it, do research and convince her. If you can't, graciously accept her decision.[/quote]
