Licensed staff, my ass. You created it, you learn how to care for it. Babysitters don't have to be licensed, and I would think there would be a way to get around calling it an actual "daycare" center.

There are and if you try to find ways to get around it it leaves you less to work with should something go wrong.

I like where you want to go...but think about it...once something bad happens to just one child in one of these facilities and the first question that comes up is:

Were they licenced?

Not that it changes matters any but what kind of recourse would you have if you knowingly left your child in the hands of an incapable teen (on school <read: local gov't property> grounds) and something happens?

Granted you may be onto something but it's a huge risk IMO.

ETA: Just did a bit of digging...Baltimore has a school that dealt with this issue for years and the founder of the school just recently passed: http://wjz.com/topstories/Laurence.G....2.431429.html

To Whom It May Concern:

Your dumb ass got pregnant, and now to stay in school, you must take part in the on-school daycare program. This requires you to staff, as well as leave your child in the care of, said on-school daycare center. If you get hurt by one of the other dumbasses' kids who are in the center, or if your child gets hurt by one of the other dumbasses who staff the center, the school has no liability. Next time, wrap it up.

Precisely. While I love this idea, I just know that it wouldn't be feasible. While they wouldn't be licensed, the insurance of the school would go through the roof if you had an on-site day care program staffed by dumbass hornball adolescents. Now if it was off-site, then I don't know how that would affect things.

I don't win. You're the one that suggested the fathers take part in it, too. And that's only fair. I don't understand why girls are always the ones to pay for stupid, hormone-driven mistakes that boys make.

I totally agree. If you think you are responsible enough to engage in sex, you better be responsible enough to raise a child! That's the risk you take.

My high school had Childcare as a technical class you could take - so students staffed the daycare, learning about childcare as a potential career choice under an experienced teacher, and students and faculty got a cheap childcare option.
