So I have been pondering... which option would you choose?
Enter Parenthood and:
♦ stop working/stay home and recieve a stipend from your employer or a govt. subsidy
♦ continue working and have childcare that is government owned and operated
♦ continue working and have childcare that is privatized, licensed and bonded
♦ mandate that all employers have on-site childcare
♦ nanny arrives on your doorstep, leaving only when you give-the-word
Personally, I would love to see employers or the government providing a stipend for a period of time until my child reached school age, allowing me the opportunity to firmly found my family yet relieving financial stress.
However, I believe that allowing families the option to choose which selection works best for them, is the ultimate best!! More options that actually work!!!
