Actually, this should be typical Bloody Guardian Readers. And, mostly, they have a point.
There's a piece of research that found children of working mums are more likely to be unhealthy - eating sweets, junk food, slouching in front the TV, more likely to be overweight etc
My response was well what did they expect? What a pointless piece of research; kids at home on their own or round a mate's house are obviously more likely to do that because nobody is watching.
The following blog is dominated, quite rightly, with comments about why just mums, what about dads and how women can't win; either lazy stay at homes or blamed for their kids ill health.
But somebody comes along and spoils it, blaming the childcare providers. Maybe I'm wrong but isn't chidcare the preserve of the few? Those that can either afford it or those with the good fortune to have access to employee or other subsidised schemes?
I could be wrong but the way the comment was written just made me think of some middle class twat who thinks the advantages they had/have are the norm for everyone else.
