The average nurse cares more than her wage pays for. I guess it's the same with the average daycare worker. At least it's my own experience (against all odds daycare workers have pretty low wages here in France)
That's certainly my experience in the UK - the workers in the nursery my son went to from 6 months were absolute saints and had a lot of passion for their work - they loved working with kids.
Down voting because the op didn't saying anything about 'cares more about engaging' or 'cares about his daughter'. That's blatant misrepresentation of the what the op did write.
No it is not. I asked a question on how the op thinks a 22 year old paid to look after his daughter is more engaged with her than either him or his wife.
We have a statement from rainier that a 22 year paid to look after his daughter is more engaged with her than either him or his wife. What motivation does this 22 year old have for being more engaged than him and his wife? This is what I mean by cares.
rayiner might not be in a country that pays minimum wage for daycare. (Some countries don't even have a minimum wage, and some even pay their daycarers decent money.)
This is possible, but even taking out the near minimum wage clause I am still surprised that rainier thinks that a 22 year old paid to look after his daughter cares more about her than him and his wife.
You worded that a bit strangely but it's fair to say the daycare worker made a willing career choice that involved taking care of kids all day everyday and is likely to enjoy it a lot and consider him/herself to be fairly skilled at it.
Potentially more so than a tired daddy and mommy, yes.
