You do the best you can, but you’re likely setup for failure.

As a parent in the trenches, I do not recommend children to anyone who is not fully prepared and informed for twenty years of a form of hardship.

I was asking about the 4 day class week. It makes it very hard to have two working parents.

(Also note that the 20 years is only an optimistic lower bound.)

Ahh, my apologies. With regards to the 4 day week, parents are exposed to additional childcare costs I presume. The perils of having children in a macro that considers them a luxury good, and is unwilling to subsidize daycare nor pay teachers more. If you go into it knowing you’re going to suffer (cannot afford daycare, childcare, etc), that’s a choice.

Strongly agree.
