Pregnancy Info HOME

jenna32: I can take offence by your message in so many ways. I live in Canada where we get a 1 full year mat leave. I have two kids (2.5 & 1) so am fully aware of what it means to be a SAHM. BUT I had to go back to work once my Mat leave was up because we financially have to. It's not beneficial for our family for me to be a SAHM. So, I "hand my kids off" to a in-home daycare lady 18 days in a month. They are not tortured, don't cry, god forbid they actually enjoy the social interaction. They get to play with "new" toys and socialize with the other kids. BTW even when you are a working Mom you still have to make the dinner, clean, garbage, laundry ect. Who else does it? I cannot believe that you think that a working Mom is not raising her kid. It's your perception of what raising is. I believe my kids flourish and learn so mych from daycare. It also helps prepare them for preschool and eventually the real world.
