I resigned from my job after I've given birth to my LO. Now he is 17 months old n my mil kept asking me to send him to Childcare cos she said LO when being taken care by me learns n develops v slow .. e.g. Still can't self feed using spoon, can't speak many words yet. Etc .. I'm feeling v sad .. Did I do anything wrong by wanting to take care of my LO until 3 then send him to Childcare b4 I return back to work ? Sigh .. :(

U can let ur boy practise self feeding at home, he doesn't need to go to cc to learn that. My boy at 14 Mths can self feed with spoon n fork, but that's because I gave him the chance to practise not because he goes to cc. He can pour water from jug n drink water from cup independently, not because I send him to sch, is cause I give him the opportunity to try I'm a SAHM too but I intend to send him to cc at 18 Mths though cause I feel there are some things which he can learn better in sch even though I may be able produce the same kind of activities for him at home too. But lifeskills wise, they can learn at home, dun need to go to sch for them
