I actually once said that to a guy who tried to get me on a date and complained that I worked too much. and I was, like, if you pay my bills, you set my priorities.

Honest i am so confused. You told the date you wanted him to be like your decision maker? Because he made more money. ..? Men make more money than women even when working in the same exact positions. So that means you would like all men to always be the decision makers, not only for themselves, but for all people...?

Ok wait. I'm understanding better now. You do believe the person making more money should be the decision maker, so you insist on trying to make more money... Is that what you're saying? You don't resign yourself to not be the decision maker, but the only way for that to happen (in your belief) is for you to be the one who makes more money?..

Originally posted by happymom View PostI think it's honestly because these parents are budgeting wrong.
They are figuring what daycare costs per day and subtracting it from what they make per day. Say mom makes $80 per day at work, pay $35 to daycare, she figures she makes $45 a day by going to work....and neglects to think about it as a monthly/weekly/yearly budget.
By doing this they also neglect to think about the provider and how the provider makes a living
