* WHy do parents who place their kids in daycare?
Well little johnny is getting interaction with other kids, I've even heard and seen it posted where people have said that children who stay at home with their mothers don't. Do they know how dumb that sounds?
I mean I laugh out loud to myself when I hear that garbage. Please. We have 2 playroups, we are involved in MOPS and my kids get plenty of interaction without them being in daycare.
I know everyone can't stay at home with their kids, but to assume that kids who stay at home with their mom or dad don't get interaction with other kids is absurd. Why do you think people say that all the time , the ones who use daycare?
THIS IS NOT A BATTLE of stay at home moms or dads vs working parents. this is a battle of assumptions
have a great day, i need to finish prepping dinner before naps are over! toodles

hello , all I was a stay at home mom when my dd was little.
Now she is 11 yr old. To start with my dd never went to day care or preschool, she was far ahead of kids in kindergarten. She was
reading simple books call Bob books at 3 yrs of age new her alphabet and could write her name. She could also count to 20, with
or with out objects. Also she had play dates to socialize and went to
her cousins to spend the night and had plenty of socialinzation.
So I think what ever you choose to do to rear your child is ur choice, but don't make un eduacated guesses about others life
styles.
I think either is fine for a child and no mother should slam another we are all in this togather.
Thanks

I'm a stay at home mom, but if I had to put my kids in daycare, it might comfort me to believe it was good for them because they would be playing with other kids all day. My daughter is very shy with other kids, but she is 2 and isn't necessarily at a stage in her development where she would interact with them a whole lot anyway (I think.) I live in a small town that doesn't offer a lot of activities for kids her age and I haven't made a lot of friends yet (been here less than a year) to start a play group. Maybe a one day a week in daycare would be good for her. I'm not worried though, since she will have a sister to play with in about 2 months.
