AMEN! And this means, In an uncertain economy, that grandparents who may be better off should help a young couple keep the new mom at home, if necessary.
35 years of 4 children in school. 40 years of parenting minor children. My children are 40, 37, 21 and 19. We worked off shifts and weekends and expected nothing from the grandparents. I did my time. I’m not assisting Susie homemaker with her decisions at this stage of my life. The couple can figure it out like we did.
Babies need their mothers. We shouldn't turn them over to careworkers if it is avoidable.
I am probably the only day care provider that wishes she were 'out of a job'. Every baby should have their mother home.
Agreed.

No. I did my time in parental purgatory. Not doing it again.
What , pray tell, is parental purgatory?

I was a stay at home mom, my kids are all grown now. They grow up so darn fast, have to enjoy every minute you can with them!
