Oh yes, cfred, don't misunderstand me, I complete agree with you that these little people are scared out of their minds and miss their parents and the one on one attention with them. Think how frightened any of us as adults are to start a new school or work situation and here they are at 1 year old in the same scary situation. I agree.

Yes, they learn that we have great fun, food, activities and friends and caring and sharing and loving at daycare, but it takes time before they are happy and contented. That's what I was trying to relate to Jennifer.
