parents of five month old children in day care don't call all day and you don't find that strange????even on lunch hour or a quick 10 minute break and they had better things to do than check up on their child?????yes,i find it strange because I'm a single woman surrounded by parents and all they do is call to check up on their kids all day long...On lunch hour they are out the door to go see the kid....and I would bet most of your friends and family members,who are parents are the same way....
No, the people I know whose children are in day care are not calling all day long. Most won't leave their kids in a place they feel like they have to check on all day. The first couple of weeks there is anxiety and they call. But once they feel like the kids are adjusted, they don't call all day.
Anyone who is checking all day and is that preoccupied, ought not have their child in day care or with a sitter.
