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 .. :(

Different kids learn and develop at different pace. Don’t worry too much. Initially my family was also worried that my LO won’t know how to speak if we don’t send her to school. She’s turning 3 end june, and we’re only sending her to school next month. But she has no problem communicating to us and letting us know what she wants, she can count to 20, and she can sing at least 5 songs. Pd say she is doing very well also. So don’t worry. Let your LO grow at his own pace ◡̈
