I know that there will come a day when I have a baby and chances are they'll have to be in daycare. I do want to stay home and be a housewife and stay with the children, but, in all reality, I probably won't be able to do that until my third or fourth child if even then, depending on my husband's work status.
It's hard, putting your child in daycare right after they're born, but if that's what you have to do then that's what you have to do. It comes down to being able to work to afford to give them everything they might need or want to being able to stay home with them. I do hope, though, that when I get off my maternity leave I'll be able to leave my child with family rather than a daycare because I have family that has already volunteered to babysit and I prefer to leave my children with them rather than strangers, but still.
It's a hard choice to make, but it's a choice that every parent has to make at some point. Sometimes it just can't be helped and there's not really any way around it.

Yeah, this is really tough choice for the parent. I mean, I'm not talking about my child, I just saw it only when I registered my 28 months old that time cuz I have an appoinment for 2-3 hrs only, and I saw this baby on the swing look like 1-2 weeks old only..I feel really touch the baby, but if thats the only option to put the kid on the daycare cuz their away from the family and the parents need to work for the daily needs.
Well, I guess that's the part of our life, faced the reality!
