Reporter's question
Paying too much for day care?
The Southeast Missourian wants to know how child care costs are affecting families. One report recently suggested it cost more to send an infant today care than it does to send a child to a public university. If you have a child or children in day care, we'd like to know how you're managing your work and expenses. Or, if you've recently quit work because day care costs are too expensive, we'd like to hear your voice, too. Contact Lindy Bavolek at lbavolek@semissourian.com.
