[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel sorry for your little one. That's a long day. Have you thought about that? Judging from your replies, you don't seem like the mothering type but maybe consider your child because that's a really long day to basically be at daycare all year round.[/quote]
Agreed. It's horrible for any child.[/quote]
Oh please! you know what's truly horrible for a child would be staying with judgy greedy nannies and picking up bad attitude [/quote]

A 4 year old who has only ever been in part-time preschool (so 2.5-4 hours) is unlikely to transition smoothly to full-time preschool with before and aftercare, or daycare that lasts 8-12 hours.  You won't pick up your child until 6 pm, so unless your son is dropped off at 9 am or later, that's 9 hours per day.  There's no downtime, no chance to take a breath and recharge.  There's no chance to have any time to himself.  It can work, and for your son's sake, I hope that it does work from the start.[/quote]

Again, you keep mentioning 12 hours for some weird reason.

Your message makes me think that you don't really know what happens inside childcare facilities.  No downtime? No time to take a breath? Childcare facilities have a mandated 2-hr break for nap and quiet time. Plenty of time to recharge. [/quote]
