I just read an article of a 4 month old dying in a daycare because the woman laid him down in his stomach in the crib and didn’t check on him for hours. That is precisely why I could absolutely never do daycare. I’m so paranoid, I refuse to let anyone care for my child.
I had awful daycare experiences my entire childhood. One of them the boys found the dads porn & watched it. One the boys would lock this girl in the bathroom & the daycare teacher wouldn’t do anything about it. One the guy would listen to very sexual R&B during recess.
I just don’t trust people. People are awful. And just because someone works with kids doesn’t mean they actually give a shit about kids.
And I know it’s not realistic to protect my daughter from every little thing her entire life and I will forever be paranoid of her getting hurt or somehow dying but I want to do everything in my power to keep her safe from evil people.
