| 450914 | 2006-05-01 01:45:00 | Well I was no.7 child, and my mother was not long out from hospital after having no.8 child. The shearing gang were due to arrive, so I [being only 18mths old] got sent off to Karitane hospital to be looked after for a few days so that Mum could cope with cooking for the shearers and looking after the other 7 kids, including the newborn. Dad would have had his hands full managing the sheep. So a place for kids to go to, so that parents cope with a temporary situation has been around for years.. AND it's a great idea in my opinion. JJJJJ> My Dad was a hands on father, worked as a team with my mother, whether it was the cooking, washing, even plastering all 9 of us with calamine lotion when we all got chicken pox at the same time. I'm sorry you feel that childcare and housework is beneath you. |

| 450916 | 2006-05-01 05:16:00 | Even though I'm not a fan of mothers working before the littlies are in school I can still see that such a place may be very useful in many situations . Not everyone has family or friends available or willing to take care of your children during emergencies or the odd occasion when you have to go out after hours . The thing with that place is that the cost will be a big deterant for a lot of people - $15 per hour for an overnight stay of 8-10 hours is very expensive . I know I wouldn't have used such a facility at that price . Regular and long-term users would probably get a good discount but even then it would be an awful lot cheaper and more convenient to employ a regular nanny type of person to babysit . |

| 450918 | 2006-05-01 06:17:00 | Well from a parents, teacher, point of veiw . . . . :rolleyes: If i was a shift worker or a odd hours (night hours) worker this would help me greatly . knowing that my children are cared for any time, night or day, would make going to work easier in most aspects . . . . . except for the feeling bad about leaving them there bit . And yes in my case a single income, means not always having, and doing what is the norm . . . . . . you just have to think outside the square i guess . . . Apparently this is the norm in most other coutries . . . . . . . . . . . . . and since NZ is becoming a more shift work oreinted world, you have to go with the flow or lose business . . . . . and 24 hr childcare is becoming the norm / expected . . . . beetle :waughh: |

| 450919 | 2006-05-01 06:41:00 | BillyT. Have you ever been to Rotorua?More times than I can count Jack. I have been a regular visitor for the last 25 years, day trips and stays from 2 to 5 days. Mostly, but not all, for business reasons. If it is anything to judge by, I certainly don't need maps when I visit. I have similar familiarity with most of the major cities in the North Island, and some of the larger centres in the South Island Why do you ask? Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 450920 | 2006-05-01 07:24:00 | How much an hour do you need to be earning to pay someone 18 an hour to look after the children so you can go to work and earn a living? The mind has boggled. (PS I think it would be nice if the disgust, disthisandthat thing died.) |
