    Unhappy I think I got a job but..........

    Well i had an interview yesterday with Princess Cruises for a reservation call center person and she sure sounded like I got a position since she said"I'll call you by Wed...I suggest you start looking for day care arrangements today" well ok then however I started calling I am gonna pay out at least $600-1200 a month for the 3 boys for PART TIME care I am so frustrated and do not know what to do. Its horrible unless you get welfare there is NO help for you! Just needed to vent!!Thanks all

    I can't believe how expensive daycare is. I hope everything works out for you.

    Could you possibly hire a teenager to babysit for you if it is after school hours?

    I hope you can find a good person to care for your children but with a lesser fee...

    It's rediculous, isn't it. Not that our children aren't worth it, but that it's so expensive for women to work outside the home.

    I always wondered why we should have to pay anyway. There are so many childless couples that think they want children, shouldn't we be able to rent them out?

    It will only be temporary thats what I keep telling myself......As far as a teenager doing that would work EXCEPT the kids go to a school half way across town so I would need to find them a ride home Thinking maybe I could find another mom thats home with her kids from school and maybe my mom after she gets off work..... Well anyway I am going to meet with the 2 cheapest I found.......$150 a week for all 3 and $190 a week for all 3
