Daycare alone is expensive enough


why have kids you're going to give someone else to raise? that's what a mom is for, to mother. nobody can mother your kid but their mother. you shouldn't have kids if you're just gonna stick 'em in day care.

This is ridiculous. You do realize you can still be a good, involved parent even if you use the services of a daycare, right?

There’s 168 hours in a week. Daycare is roughly 40 hours. Who do you think is taking care of them the rest of the time? Idiot

Because nobody would have kids if they had to depend on just one income for 5-6 years. Then you would be complaining about how all these deadbeat people are just staying home and not working....you can't have it both ways. Guess what there are a lot of women out there who want to have kids and a career, it's not 1955 anymore where mom stays home and patiently waits all day for dad to come home. My wife is a clinical pharmacist and works her butt off and is still a great mom and if I ever told her she just needs to stay home and be a baby machine she'd probably punch me in the face.

Since we both work, that means our kids have had to go to daycare for a bit. They get to play with other kids, learn to listen to adults other than mom and dad, and have access to fun activities.

Mostly because the dream of a one parent working in the house to make ends meet is fading one zip code at a time.
