IT'S NOT A MATTER OF WHO CAN AFFORD DAYCARE. My husband and I have no problem with the cost of daycare. Yes- we have kids and yes we can afford them. I find that a total insult. The problem is - -our choices are being stripped due to the choices of others. If a parent feels their kid was not ready and decided to hold them back..........that's their option. Don't make a wait another year b/c they chose to have a 6 yr old in kindergarten. If you are going to allow those parents to chhose, allow ALL parents to choose. Another option would be to force them to start their kids at 5!!!! The schools could place the 'older' kindergarteners in a class just as they do with daycares. That was a rude comment and inconsiderate comment. It surely does not apply to all.
