[QUOTE="Over 70, post: 2703576, member: 65928"] My almost 3 year old has been in daycare since 6 weeks old when my wife went back to work. Daycare sucked when he was a baby but it's great for him now. He goes even when I'm laid off for 8 hours or so. He's been with the same group of kids since he was a baby and can't wait to play with them all day. I think it's great for building social intelligence. I cringe a little when people act like your kid going to daycare is worse than sitting at home with a parent all day. He'll get bored at home while I'm tending to all the responsibilities of running a household which is a Neverending gig. And we're paying for it regardless if he goes :) But there is one caveat, his daycare has a 2 year wait list, run by and located on a major university campus, and isn't cheap so I guess it's not your typical venue. It's setup more like school and has staff exceeding state mandated ratios. Employees have paid vacation, 401k, college education. There's plenty of day cares I'd not be so comfortable with. [/QUOTE]
