another tactless comment from the "perfect guy"

If there is a "so called man" around, I bet it's you. I'd like to see how smug you were after telling a hard working man what you just wrote. I'd like to put my boot in your ass as it is.

[Under the Radar]

It's one thing to be rude and ignorant. It's another thing to be prideful about it. I feel for your children.

Fair 'nuff. You should feel sorry for them, they are going to have quite a life. We will be living on the edge of poverty, but at least they will be raised by their parents, not by strangers.

of course it is me, my kids are not in some disease infested daycare warehouse, watching Barney videos all day!!

Real men make enough $$$$ so their family can have a happy, normal life. Try it sometime!!!

I am not blaming the mother, but no one HAS to put a child in daycare. I have two nephews, one works in a movie theatre and delivers pizzas on the weekends to support his three kids and stay-at-home wife. The other works for a pool company and does it on 9.00 an hour. Work another shift. Why do two parents have to work the 9 to 5, weekends off?
If you have a child and need income, take in other kids. At least yours is safe.

I don't know what planet some of the posters on this thread live on, but it must be the "place called Perfect" that the Walgreens commercials keep talking about.

I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree with you on that one Ruthy. Unfortunately in my years of doing divorce recovery ministry these type of people are the ones in churches who do the most damage to kids from broken relationships. Sometimes I just wish I could show the mental pictures I've seen of how these words have affected real kids and adults and unfortunately driven them from the very sources that should be there for help. This is horrible.

That kinda don't work if no one HAS to put a child in daycare...

[RomanCatholicProlifer]

LOL, i believe the moron is the one with his children being raised by teenagers making minimum wage!!! too funny

[Arpege92]

I can sympathize with you! Sometimes.....Most times, mothers have no choice but to go back to work! I had to for a little while and my son was in daycare.....happy to report that he is healthy and happy as I am sure your children will be.

MSNBC is reporting this story now...and I see its already been posted here. Just bumping to the top.

As someone said in another thread, where a simular case happened last week, its going to be another long summer of this.

[Wneighbor]

How many more children will die before career mothers stay at home with their children? To place them in the care of commercial enterprises, or nannies is just unconscionalbe!

So, do you too advocate single women and their children sitting home on welfare and/or starving?

[Corin Stormhands]

There are no teenagers (not even my own) raising MY child.

LOL all you want, dufus. And Ruthy is right. Maybe if you'd get out in the sun a little more instead of "working your arse" off, you'd have some thicker skin.

[RMDupree]

I shudder with horror to think of a world that doesn't include your "views".

What next? A world without keyboard commandos?

Oh yes. It must be sooo healthy for the children to hear "Your mommy doesn't really love you if she has to work." yeah...right.

[Corin Stormhands]

People have their priorities all screwed up.

That's right. She should be stoned for wanting to pay the rent...

[Wneighbor]

Would we prefer not to put our son in daycare? Absolutely. Is that an option for us right now? No, it's not.

Apparantly we're talking to people way above our league as Hair puts it. Therefore, we do not fit into their society. They will be trying to do away with us all soon. </sarc.

[Arpege92]

Astonishing! You are able to look at each and every child in a day care setting and automatically know the whole story as to why they are in day care. Congratulations....you have walked in everyone else's shoes and you are now above the rest of us looking down! Amazing!
