do you understand what VALUE means, it means when thebest bang for the buck considering the market place. Why would you assume the quality of care has nothing to do with VALUE.

BTW, please don't insult walmart, those workers work very hard. I wish it it was a union store, but thats another thread of mine.

I hear what your saying, I feel for you. Good luck. Im glad you get to stay home with your son and dont have to leave him with a total stranger. No one cares for our children like the actual parents. Some parents are unable to do that do to finance. The ones that can get away with it, even for just a little while, are really doing a good thing.

Quality of care for a child is more important than the price. I can see you could care less about what kind of daycare you would put your child in if you are only looking at how much it cost. I know exactly what value means and it so doesn't qualify for childcare. To most literate people in the world, value means you can get a gallon of milk for 3.95 at walmart compared to say a grocery store where you would pay 4.50...do u even understand this difference??? And again..where did I insult walmart?? u are the one comparing a value discount store to daycare

Excuse me, but YOU brought up Walmart for the compare.. You don't understand the word value. I think you might do well (while you are ignoring your kids right now anyway) to get on the computer and take some correspondence courses. Perhaps review the English language.

im close to 40 as well, and sorry u aren't computer literate. Maybe a Sally Struthers correspondance course may help you. Ok, I am so done here. I don't even argue with my kids as much as this...geesh..sounds like a case of "I'm always right now deal with it and I don't care about anyone elses opinions".

Talk about contradictions, you still have not answered to the fact you have insulted DC workers that don't over charge. I guess you want to have it both ways. You act like your defending DC workers, while at the same time insulting them.

When I hire a service, I have a right to try and find the best value. Yes, I can expect some things as you are now MY employee. If you choose to quite, or keep your home dirty, Its just like any other employee. I will find another.

Are you S T I L L confused?
This whole thread comes across as deliberately provoking on your part (plural you). This post is particularly insulting. It seems as though you and your wife are thoroughly upset that her rant didn't generate the support and sympathy expected. Instead of making reasonable arguments for your POV you start talking in circles and throwing out insults.

It's great that at some point in the past you found a provider that met all of your needs. The fact that you can't find one on a regular basis, combined with what people here are telling you, would you concede that your demands are unrealistic? Not that it is impossible, just not likely.
