Child care..hmm..

Well in the recent light of child abuse..especially in child is under the care of school or places we called child care centre..where it supposed to be a safe haven for them..yet they are being abuse..and thank god for the inventor of cctv where we catch the teacher in her pickaboo moment..which spark off a series of chain mines..but before that..lets rewind and go back to 2012..Punggol East by-election..the issues by various residents and highly used by many parties..YES...Child care..so lets take a look at child care problem and see if there is a link...

First..the raising cost of child care...dont we so love money..so it is always a good start with money...a quick check with child care centres..you are expected to pay around 100 to 600 depending on how much you can afford and where you want to send your kid to...many parents have been saying child care are getting more and more expensive thus they are finding it hard to make ends meet with the raising cost on bread and butter..with our salary hardly moving....so how do we send kids to child care..now before all of you hit the like button..which I dont have..lets take a look at a typical day of a kid in child care...

Now you see it..they are feed..being educated..having fun with other kids..but the question is..where does the child care find the money to pay for the food..? To teaching materials for your princes n princesses..? And where do they find the money to hire the people that supposed to take care and educate your kids..? So many will go by aiyah we pay a lot every month..but if you actually pool the amount together..it is not a lot considering that the amount of bills they are paying electrical, food, educators, etc..the upkeep of a child care centre isn't cheap..

Now you are thinking right..? So lets take a look at where we can cut cost...hmm..food..I doubt you would want to feed your kids crap..not crab ah..so I dont think we can deduct from there...hmm so lesser work for them..eh..wait..arent you guys send them to child care centre to be educated at the same time someone looking after them while you are at work..so I dont think you will want to be short change here..if not they might end up losing to other kids when they go kindergarten or even primary school...so we reach the final component that can deduct child care teachers..yeah..aren't they do this job becoz of passion for kids...hmm...they dont mind taking home lesser pay right..WRONG..come on you people child care teachers are some people that we took for granted..and yet you guys want their pay to be deducted goodness...many people I know cant earn enough and ended up leaving the industry due to the ever raising cost and their salary indeed NOT moving..they are your kid next best friend you are at work everyday other then weekends..they are human too they have their families to feed too..can they just sustain on passion alone? Many of them maybe stressed up inside yet you dont know..it maybe the spark that the kid did..that spark off a series of chain reaction from the educator? Do you know that childcare teachers are one of the least appreciated educators..? They get puke on..scolded by parents for the most nitty gritty things like..why my son got bitten by mosquito..you most be laughing at it but it is true..I have heard stuff like this from my friends in the industry...in fact some parents leave the parenting espect to the educators...or even worse...technology..iphone, ipad just to name a few...so in this period of time cut some slack n take a step back...n remember they are humans too and they are doing something that you are not..so dont whine n complain something you cant do or wouldnt do...so hope this set u guys thinking...thank you..
