If i can do it, so can other momma's

I had my daughter when i was 19yrs old. And of course her dad ran out on us and still, 6 yrs later,hasnt returned. So i had no choice but to work and support myself and my child.If i had the choice though, i think i would work part time. Staying at home would drive me nuts and plus I think its very important that kids go to daycare/preschool. It teaches them so much, my daughter is a prime example. Keeping her at home while she was smaller would not have helped her develop a stable routine and she would not have such a good interaction with other kids. My daughter is the best behaved 6 yr old i have ever been around. She is respectful, polite, and has manners. She has never ran wild nor threw temper tantrums(thank god). I blame all her good behavior and intelligence on her daycare.So i agree to staying at home to a certain point. But i dont think that a child should be glued to there mom's hip 24hrs a day. I have seen the behavior of the kids that have stayed home their entire childhood and i wouldnt trade it for nothing. BUt i do wish i had more time to spend with my daughter especially now that she is in school. And because of daycare, my daughter is in an advanced K-1 grade class and is reading 2-3 books a week.Most kids are just learning how to write in K. Thats my story and i am proud for working and proud for putting my daughter in a wonderful daycare program that has taught her so much.
