Great question, this is something my wife and I have discussed a few times. I'd like to add to this video by saying that going back to work whether is mom or dad is healthy not only for the child, but for the parents as well. This creates an opportunity for the parent to have a sense of purpose other than raising a child, and connect with society and possibly other parents who are working. For the child, like the video says, if you choose a daycare this creates play time and an opportunity to develop social interaction skills. This is also going bring more independence on both sides, which seems essential for when the child have the need to explore and learn new things without feeling guilty or afraid to leave the comfort and security of their parents care.
