It just hit me(and yes this is a rant of a post), that when we start to send our 2 sons to daycare, more than likely within the next couple of weeks, that we will be paying just under the amount of tuition that a student attending Denver University(privately funded college) is shelling out! That number is $35,000/year! WTF people??? All I have to do is add another $5000 to that and my 2 yr old, and 11mos old sons should have Freshman year wrapped up in a short period of time!
Someone I know recently said..."im tired of hearing about this healthcare reform that we need, its more like we need some CHILDCARE REFORM"! Amen to that brother. Seriously, what am i getting for the what the average college student is getting? Some fat old ladies playing catch, feeding my kids, wiping their asses...all the while HOPING that they arent some sort of closet child molester! Damn...Im done...talk to you all later!
Full time child care around here runs about 1k/month - it's more for infants and less for pre-schoolers, but that's about average.
