Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Not so bad
I didn't feel that the author "bashed" day cares. The author had a section about deciding to stay home in the first place. I found the sections about transitioning back to work very helpful.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Over-the-top Daycare Bashing

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Smart, fun and well-written
Written with respect, wit, and honesty, this book stands out among the many parenting books now on the market. Berggren's experience and insight make the book worthwhile. Her writing style makes the book enjoyable to read. Offers perspective, alternatives, and food for thought.

Kris Berggren doesn't tell moms and dads what choice to make in the work/home debate, but she provides provocative questions to help families make that critical decision.
