Skip the daycare and actually do the right (and difficult) thing, which is raise them yourself. Here come the downvotes. Discipline them by breaking their will without crushing their spirit. Get off your phone and spend lots of time with them while they are young. Kids are a lot of fun. Don't do clothe diapers. Eat dinner, pray, and read the bible with them. Get some sleep when you can. Protect them from liberalism but don't shelter them. Watch what you say. That's it.

Yea my little son just turned 19 months. He likes hiding inside cabinets and popping out to say “boo!”
Also running across the couch while chanting “sit down, sit down” and “no no no” as he rakes his hand across the gas stove knobs.

This part I agree with.

It’s a huge sacrifice if you wife has a good job, but we’ll worth the investment.
We are now talking about wife looking for jobs with school schedules once he stats schools that will basically go to paying private school education
Sent my oldest two through BR magnet schools and while the education was great (and free) they came out brainwashed liberals (socialists)

Ran across this yet again this week...
2 parents working
1 travels for work a ton
Both fit in personal workouts in non-working time
Date nights on Fridays are regular events
Asked myself, "when do they parent?"
I assume they are fully "present" (not thinking about next week's work meetings) and not on phones while watching kids dance or play baseball? But am doubtful.
We approached parenting as a precious gift, with a full time parent at home from birth. Would not change a thing. Interestingly enough, the $, status and lifestyle was available to us just the same, and ironically enough, was never important to us.
With this post, our kids are now doomed to be car jackers, deal drugs, and get locked up soon. Jokes on them. 529 funds not eligible for bail money.

1) no parenting style is right necessarily. Different methods work for different folks
2) having your child in a (good) daycare is proven to have a number of benefits for the child that they are likely to not get at home with a parent or a nanny
- on that note. Don’t skimp on daycare. You get what you pay for. The cheap daycare near your house will do little more than necessary. High quality daycares will give more care to infants and do much more in the way of teaching for toddlers up til pre-K
