<<It's not the teacher the whole time. >>
I don't disagree, which is why I stated with their teachers as at school and not a single teacher.

I don't agree.

<<One meal all by itself doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, it's the big picture that matters, and how people view and interpret the big picture.>>
Exactly the point, many of those tasks don't matter in the grand scheme of things...aka parenting.

Yes, but I didn't mention caretaking for those two hours, which is what confused me...a parent who spends 8 hours a day with a child may have about as much time actual parenting as a parent who spends 2 hours a day with a child, it depends on what occurs during those hours.

Sure they are...part of parenting is caretaking....part of any human relationship is caretaking.
PumpkinAngel
It doesn't have to be at the same level, even within parents and/or between children in the same family....it's all different levels.
