My brother's wife just had a baby and will be back at work in 6 weeks. Isn't it wrong to put such a young baby in daycare?

Answer: Ah, good question. The fact is no. Six weeks is not too soon to put a baby in day care. The fact is, children grow up so fast these days. A six-week-old baby, though technically should still be nursing at her mother's teat and has out-of-control explosive bowel movements, actually has the emotional and mental development of a nineteen-year-old -- oh wait, it's the other way around. The REAL answer is yes, six weeks is way to young to dump your kid into the hands of strangers for ten hours a day. If you can't afford to have a baby, for crying out loud don't have one.
