So your numbers are very inflated and you’ve inflated the amount of effort it would take to make a simple call.

Not at all. not only is there the necessity for the call for the missing in your scenario, but there has to be some sort of roll call process checking the kids off against whose expected for the day to determine who is missing. You're not looking at the details. Enormous effort for totally miniscule benefit. Effort better spent on taking care of the kids rather than taking on the parents responsibilities.

“there has to be some sort of roll call process checking the kids off against whose expected for the day to determine who is missing”

They do this anyway.Everyday attendance is taken, so everyday they should know who is “missing” anyway.

“You’re not looking at the details. “

Wrong again.

“Enormous effort for totally miniscule benefit.”

enormous? exaggeration again.

“Effort better spent on taking care of the kids rather than taking on the parents responsibilities.”

Like I said to another poster.
If I was running a daycare and this happened to one of my families, I would not feel personally responsible, but I would regret not making that phone call.

“How many kids are dropped in daycare every day in the USA? 1 million 2 million 3 million? I have no idea, but let’s say 1% of the population so 3 million. Now let’s say it realistically takes a minute per child (oh and what happens if the phone is busy or not answered?) that’s 3 million minutes per day or 15 million minutes per week”

It appears to me that you are having those poor workers call every family every day.
Yes - that certainly would be too much.

Of course, that is not what I suggested at all.
