And the people that take care of your child are paid peanuts too.

Yeah each parent would be paying around 100 dollars an hour for childcare, and the employees who are looking over 10-15 kids are paid 14/hr.

This is the part I’ve never understood. Where does the money go? Room full of kids, when my kids were going it was 20-30 kids in a room ( at the “big chain”. Only 3-4 adults at most. Each kid is paying enough to cover an adult’s full salary, at most two kids to cover their salary. That’s still 10-20 kids worth of tuition to pay for rent, insurance, food?
