Given the cost of a "decent" daycare, why would anyone who isn't a single parent go with this option? If you're not making enough money to have one person stay at home, you need to reevaluate your priorities. Spend less on nonsense consumer goods. Trade money for time with your child who needs you. Hell, figure out a way to have one parent work from home, or start a business of their own so they can take their child to work (what my mom did).
Why'd y'all daycare people even have kids, anyway? Just to have some generally underqualified people raise them with a bunch of other little poorly parented monsters polluting their heads? Public schools are bad enough...do they really need an extra few years of feeling abandoned in addition? Just because *you* want to "have it all" and theoretically can doesn't mean there's not a cost. You're just kicking it down the road onto your child, who didn't get a vote in the matter.
Shame on you.
That's quite an assumption there. I'd be very careful about making big assumptions on why people live the way they do. You don't have to obviously. Just don't be surprised when people don't take you seriously.

They better claim it as income too
Ugh...I'm going to go out on a limb and say she isn't going to claim it.
But we don't really have many options since the daycare's we want to send them to are all full...until Sept 2017

Did you sign a contract? If so follow that.
If not - don't pay. It's pretty simple really.

Well, that's usually the go-to when you don't have arguments.

I agree with you baw. All these daycare defenders are raising little feminists and betas

That's fair. To be clear, it was a legitimate question followed by an inherent negative assumption. I'm sure it doesn't apply in all cases, but it applies way more than not, from what I've seen.
I couldn't care less whether people on a random forum take me seriously, if they're the type of person whose cognitive dissonance demands that they react without thinking when faced with unpleasant questions. Downvote away, daycare champions! I am legitimately curious, though.

I'm the oldest of 4. I was in daycare until I was in preschool. My younger siblings were all raised at home. We all graduated HS with honors, finished college in 4 years, and have been gainfully employed since graduation with jobs in our field(s) of study.

You assume the reason for both spouses to work is for selfish reasons related to continuing to consume at the same rate. When, in our case, it isn't.

Once again, full of assumptions.

You know who else stays at home with their kids?
Welfare queens popping babies out as fast as they can, sitting on their asses eating Cheetos and watching Judge Judy reruns.
You gonna try and tell me those women are better parents because they don't have children in daycare as well?
Not every couple can realistically have a parent stay home with the kids. It's nothing about them being "selfish" and more about them wanting their child to have a better life than they did. And for some families....that means both parents work outside the home. Nothing wrong with that.

Good deal. Hardly a data set large enough to yield any meaningful conclusions, though. I'd like to see the numbers on outcomes nationally, so maybe I'll look that up later. Also, I suspect that daycares back then (whenever that was) are quite different than they are today. Schools certainly are. No argument to make regarding that, just an observation. Possibly apples to oranges.

Well, usually it is...to some degree. Even if not *the same* rate, still an excessive rate. What is more important in life than spending time with one's children, especially in their formative years?
quote:

One overarching assumption, basically. Generalizations are just that. Regardless, the question stands. Why have children at all if someone else is going to raise them?
Other than just ego ("I want a little me") or poor family planning ("whoops"), obviously...

The poors get their daycare free. Go downtown BTR and see that $650 / month getting paid for. Just another perk ...
