I think people are over-reacting to Daisy's comment. I get what she means.

When you work outside the home you usually get your wage put into the bank by direct deposit and it is almost like 'virtual money'

It is a different feeling to get handled a bundle of money by several people. It just feels different and that is that. For a moment every week I feel like I have money. lol

There are weeks where I am putting in extra time cooking healthy meals at night for the daycare or cutting out items for the next day's craft and feeling like I am doing a 14 hour day and exhausted....then I get paid from a parent and I see the little bundle of money and it does make me feel happier and keep my refocused again and determined to do well for the kids.

Having cash handed over and available to you without going to an ATM could be a perk

I can ONLY seak for myself...Daisy's comment didn't bother me at all. It made me laugh in a "yeah right <eye roll> a "perk"...." kinda way

My personal question is for Cacoon who claims with only 2 daycare kids can support '2 adult family'.....I'd like to know what I'm doing wrong?! I agee in keeping a positive vibe but I also agree in not letting someone new go in with blinders on! NO it's not GREAT money....it's money. We all need it but it's not like we can drop $1000 when we feel like it because we're rolling in the cash.

That's all that bothered me. Be happy, Be positive but Be HONEST (or at least back up your statements).

Sorry for causing your positive thred into chaos Daisy
