A Mother’s Day comment from the Minister for Women lit up every group chat in Australia: are we really being told the earlier our babies go into childcare, the better?
Kee and Lize unpack the guilt, the impossible maths, the daycare scramble, and the quiet truth so many parents are living with - childcare isn’t the problem, but having no real choice is. Because “just go back to work” hits differently when the village is expensive, waitlisted, or doesn’t exist.
