    Daycare is kind of intense.

    You have a bunch of parents who would rather be with their kids. They’re paying close to their own mortgage/rent to have their kids watched. They’re convinced that the teens/young adults the daycare hires are not doing anything. Their kids are there with a load of other kids, pick up bad habits, get bullied and yelled at by kids in worse home situations. As soon any any scratch or scrape happens they want to know know for those prices.

    The timesheets give them solace that their kid is being watched, fed, changed, and taken care of emotionally.

    it’s not necessary, but it’s not hard to see why it happens
