The Daycare Dilemma

9. May 2008 by Mama T..

It’s not fun dropping my children off at daycare. Sometimes it is heartache for them, but mostly it is heartache for me. I think back to when I was listening to a radio host complain about how parents should take care of their own children rather than leave them with someone else. All I can say is that in an ideal world I would stay home and bring up my own children. However, this is far from an ideal world, and if I waited until I could really afford my children, I would never have any. Some would say that that’s probably a better idea, but then, how many people would still have children? I’m guessing that the population would decrease and the human race would disappear if we all waited until we really earned enough to stay home and take care of our own children. My children are my joy and if this means me having to subject them to a daycare while I’m making a living, well then I guess that’s what I will do until I come into a windfall. Until then, my day does not start until I pick them up.
