Hopefully you'll change your mind about...Awwww! Hopefully you'll change your mind about your "I'm Just Saying!" I've been enjoying the hell out of them. <br /><br />Day Care Centers give me the creeps! When I was younger, I went to one and the lady there hated my guts! she treated me like the crap under her shoe. So what I flushed her birthcontrol pills..I was six!

I can function ...I am not a morning person either. I can function I just need my space.<br /><br />I have worked in child care for the past 10 years and can say without reservation that it can be a wonderfully positive experience for children and that working parents should not feel guilty. Honestly take it from me your children are going to suck more of your time between the ages of 7-16 then between 1-5. They will need you to take them everywhere and because they have been in daycare and are extremely social they have a lot of places to go!!!!<br />great jobMaking It Work Momhttp://www.makingitworkmom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313286579472873063.post-60676786223655082712011-04-15T16:35:22.894-05:002011-04-15T16:35:22.894-05:00cute. I especially agree with #4 on your list. som...cute. I especially agree with #4 on your list. sometimes people just don't understand that other people just don't have the financial ability to make different choices! Just sayin'...:-)Oh and p.s I think that daycare is a great place for a child to develop all kinds of important skills that nannies and stay at home moms can't always teach...mina barhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452029932102581510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1313286579472873063.post-84529772942168940352011-04-15T16:31:54.282-05:002011-04-15T16:31:54.282-05:00Most people don't get that not everyone gives ...Most people don't get that not everyone gives a shit what they think.<br />GAH!!
