do you guys ever wonder down the road about those kids who spend all their time at daycare. I've been at this a long time so I now see the effects on some of the kids long term. Lots of poor relationships with their parents and lots of time spent on video games.
Um, yes! So glad I am able to be home with my children.

And I do agree the post got off topic... because continuous daycare dumpers do irk me. I have one now and had one in the past. Here all the time, long hours, every day, and with gparents on weekends. these kids are starved for attention, loving parental attention, and their behaviour reflects it. I don't want to see these two in 5 years.
