i am trying to figure out if you know nothing about daycare or nothing about kindergarten - because one of them you know NOTHING about. my 3 year old is in preschool/daycare and he doesnt need anyone to wipe his nose or butt nor do they do it at daycare. do you really think kids educational needs are not recognized, understood and met until they get to first grade - my son is having that experince right now at 3 years old - maybe it is because he is in a program that works closely with the elementary school to prepare the kids for the future.
i am very surprised your elementary school classes dont do things as a group - do they eat as a group, what if one child isnt hungry at that time? what about going to the library, or pe or art, what if some of the kids dont want to do those things when the rest of the class does? and our preschool daycare while it does have a rest time any child that doesnt want to rest can go to the gym. i really think you need to educate yourself about what goes on in the real world as opposed to what you have dreamed up

Oh boy, I am going to stick my neck out here.....
She hasn't said WOHPs are not raising their children. She has said that she SAHs so she can raise her children. Nothing about what other moms do. Just what she does. I SAH when my kids were young to raise my kids but I know also that WOHMs raise their kids. We just do it a different way.
What else am I supposed to say that I SAH for? I did the physical act of raising my kids during that time plain and simple. Everything I did was for raising my kids - just like everything that a WOHM does is for raising her kids. I am now a WOHM and I am still everything that I do is to raise my kids. I am just doing it a different way than I did before.

There has been a trend in the schools in my area where teachers are being pressured not to give hugs to their students. Too many parents were complaining about "inappropriate" contact between an adult and a child. Thankfully none of the teachers my kids have had are buying into this mentality. My kids love to get hugs and I am glad that their teachers are willing to accomodate them :)
I disagree, imo it is clearly a contradiction ...
The beauty of debate eh...;)
I would hope parents are not thinking ones parenting style is all their is to raising their children.
No i did not know that i had no ides what you were implying by "marked difference" am i am not doing a little dance with words.
I could not tell you what a "marked" diff between a sah child and woh child is it would depend on the child and the home they were raised in.
Im sure i could find something to link you too that would give you a generalized list but i could not say i would agree with them...
perhaps i will look into if i find some time...it may be interesting and stir the pot a bit.
B/c you are installing her beliefs and values you are a part of raising those kids and i find it sad you allow these children into your home to raise when your sister cannot so they wont be seperated or put in foster care to be raised and you will not say you are major part raising them.
I dont think you can honestly say it would be the same even if you had kids....that would be impossible...
anyway i think what you are doing is great so ill leave it that i simply dont agree with your views on the subject.
no...
