Who has influenced your sah/woh
| Thu, 02-09-2006 - 2:39pm |
opinion to DIFFER. What I mean is--is there anyone on this board or in real life whose opinion/reasoning/debating/facts started to make your thinking more to the middle? As in if you thought sah or woh was best & then after some discussion/thought, you began to think that whatever is best for each family--really there is no one best way, etc.
We just really needed a new thread here!!!!!!!!

This debate had been limited by SBM and Mom34101 to daycares, not schools really.
Did your daycare take your children to these places? If so, that's great. When buses pull up to the children's museum, aquarium, play places, etc., I have only seen school or camp children come out of the buses. I've never noticed groups of daycare children with a provider or two and their assistants. Even the one expensive daycare I know of doesn't do the permission slip/field trip thing because of liability concerns. I think that is common for in-home and center daycares. Do you think your daycare is unusual, or is that common for the daycares you're familiar with?
I know pre-schools charge handsomely for music, dance, theater, etc. But even the expensive ones I've researched, sent my daughters to or heard about here on these parenting boards don't do that many weekly field trips. *Summer camps* do many field trips, IME. Are you talking about your children's camps?
"It is a shame that any woman thinks they are only of value to their daughters if they work."
I agree. Quite a shame.
I would consider it an opportunity but an opportunity for both the sahp and wohp.

***Yes, I asked you which child was better or worse, you compared them and gave me an answer. Why can't they just be different? Why do you need to think that everything that is different has a better or a worse?***
I will ask you the same. Why do they always have to be different? Why can't they be better or worse? Why do you have to think everything is different and not better or worse?
***That you don't need to compare your children, they are just different. Just like many things....no need to compare because one just accepts the difference without assigning a value of better or worse to it.***
I don't need to compare anything. I would love to know how you came to that conclusion. Better yet where I said I had a need to compare things. Why do you feel compelled to say that things are always different?
