[speaker001:] well do you have children
[speaker002:] no
[speaker001:] you don't have children
[speaker002:] no
[speaker001:] and my children are in their twenties now so
[speaker002:] oh
[speaker001:] child care is something that I I no longer fortunately have to take care of but it is something that was hard at the time just finding finding sitters I did not work though so I didn't have to uh have to worry about you know all day during the day which I think is a real problem
[speaker002:] yeah  yeah I agree uh cause I suppose when when I do start having children uh I'd like to stay home for a while but uh you know eventually I'd I might have to put them in day care to work I and I think it's hard to find um good day care because just the other night um on the news in Milwaukee um they're closing down a day care because um the lady who owns um slapped a child
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] and um she had a lot of um like um um what did she have um like tickets against her um saying that the she didn't have proper food um prepared for them
[speaker001:] oh boy
[speaker002:] and that it was just dirty and and she didn't take very good care of the kids and you know you don't want to send your kids to place like that
[speaker001:] no it's really scary and there does seem to be more and more of that if people are doing it instead of grandmothers and aunts and you know
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] that kind of thing where where people are doing it for money and trying to make ends meet then it's it it becomes an entirely different thing
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] and we keep reading about all these different things that go on child abuse and
[speaker002:] um-hum
[speaker001:] and people with criminal records etcetera I think it would be very frightening
[speaker002:] um-hum yeah
[speaker001:] and I know some companies have child care facilities at the company but not many of them do
[speaker002:] right or you have to um it's pretty expensive I
[speaker001:] yeah
[speaker002:] the college I go to they have uh child care um there but you still have to pay you know it doesn't come with them
[speaker001:] do you know how much it is
[speaker002:] no I don't
[speaker001:] yeah yeah but that's what I've heard is that that you've got to earn an awful lot I mean you know a lot of times the wife's money basically covers what you have to pay out so that doesn't help
[speaker002:] right it's like uh uh if you do work most of the money goes back into taking care of your child so
[speaker001:] uh-huh uh-huh
[speaker002:] you might as well stay home if you're married
[speaker001:] yeah that's right well I I and and uh and then there's the question of you know if what what to look for what's what's going to be uh what's going to be a good place and uh do they
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] do they turn out as well as the ones where the mother stays home that's that's a really difficult issue I know
[speaker002:] yeah I've I've heard a lot of things about that too um with some people say it's not healthy for your children to be in day care and you know other's say it is so I don't know
[speaker001:] uh-huh you you haven't decided yet huh
[speaker002:] uh no
[speaker001:] no I think it's going to be hard I feel like I was I was lucky to get to be at home and there were a lot of times that it was boring and it and it certainly isn't true is true that didn't didn't set me up for a career but at the same time uh it felt good to be there when they got home from school
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] those were the stories that that that I got to hear it was even hard to get their father to get to hear them you know they would come home and they'd say all this and then later on you say well tell dad about you know and they go oh I already told you you know it all gone kind of thing
[speaker002:] yeah
[speaker001:] oh and that parts good and you get to see them as they progress etcetera
[speaker002:] yeah um-hum
[speaker001:] but at the same time if you don't have enough money or if you are trying to build a career you know then you have to give everything up just to stay home and I think that's a real question
[speaker002:] yeah that is it's a tough decision
[speaker001:] and uh do you know uh you say they have it at school is it for the students or for the teachers or for both
[speaker002:] um-hum um I think it's for for the students
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] yeah I don't know if it would it's it makes sense to have it for the teachers too
[speaker001:] uh-huh
[speaker002:] but um I'm not really sure I haven't looked into it I don't need it
[speaker001:] well what about you and your own background did did your mother or father stay home or did did they work or
[speaker002:] um yeah my mom stayed home um she had four kids and she stayed home with all of us until I got into about kindergarten and then she went um back to work after
[speaker001:] and so you so you were in school
[speaker002:] right
[speaker001:] and when you came home from school was there some one there or was uh what happened I mean did she get off when you got home or was there some one taking care of you like an older brother or sister or
[speaker002:] um
[speaker001:] do you remember
[speaker002:] for a while she was there um when I got home but then um and she started working later until like four and I would come home first and I and my brothers and sisters were all older than me so
[speaker001:] so you had there was some one there to take care of you yeah
[speaker002:] yeah um-hum yeah there was already somebody home
[speaker001:] yeah cause I think that's another
