The Busy Bee Daycare

[Diane Amberg]

Let's see now...dueling pistols, wailing Patsy (#62) bouncing balls and pounding dirt.It's gonna get noisy around here!

[greatguns]

Such a pleasant bunch!

The people who have tried to have daycares in their homes have struggled for an assortment of reasons.  I believe we currently have no licensed (home based or otherwise) in Elk County.  One reason is the same reason that all small businesses struggle-too many government regulations and hoops to jump through.  Another reason is that some parents are slow to pay their daycare bill.  The last one that was left, closed because she moved to where her husband found a job.  There is a need for daycare here.  The survival rate on new businesses is extremely low (don't have time to google an exact figure) so it will take a lot of freewill donations and volunteerism for it to survive.  It seems overwhelming the time and effort that will be needed.  But does that mean it shouldn't be tried?  If it seems hard or overwhelming, should it be squashed before it is even attempted.  Is the glass half full or half empty?

The people who have tried to have daycares in their homes have struggled for an assortment of reasons.  I believe we currently have no licensed (home based or otherwise) in Elk County.

Generalities and assumptions and no facts?
There were about eight women that were at a meeting with agency's that was set up just before Elk Konnected, LLC held their Kommunity Konversation on Daycare with a flower garden or whatever people wanted. But there were not many people show up for that meeting were there?

It appears this is the way Elk Konnected, LLC and our Konnected Kounty Kommissioners work?
No feasibility study, just assumptions?
No meat!

One reason is the same reason that all small businesses struggle-too many government regulations and hoops to jump through.  Another reason is that some parents are slow to pay their daycare bill.

So if people are slow to pay or don't pay, how is that going to make a daycare center work?

So, this is not good enough, news for the reasons to beg of others, to open a daycare is it?
Why can't Elk Konnected, LLC and the Konnected Kounty Kommissioners use their own money to start a business?
Are they that sure of failure that they don't want to risk their money?
I'm talking about that $85,000 that Konnected Kounty Kommission Hendricks discussed with us right here on this thread. 
Where is all that money and the money for the sale of the failed Konnected Wellness Center they sold?

Heck, everyone might start a business if they could beg for everything to start the business and not have to worry about using mtheir own money, right?

The last one that was left, closed because she moved to where her husband found a job.  There is a need for daycare here.  The survival rate on new businesses is extremely low (don't have time to google an exact figure) so it will take a lot of freewill donations and volunteerism for it to survive.  

If this will take a lot of freewill donations and volunteerism for it to survive, and would that be for the benefit of Elk Konnected, LLC to make money?
And then be able to pay themselves a salary?  
Non-profit does not mean non-salary does it?
Where are all of Elk Konnected, LLC's visionaries?
Can't they use that visionary system to come up with the money to start a daycare from their own bank accounts instead of begging? Perhaps those visionaries need to go to a visionary refresher course?

It seems overwhelming the time and effort that will be needed.  But does that mean it shouldn't be tried?  If it seems hard or overwhelming, should it be squashed before it is even attempted.  Is the glass half full or half empty?

What glass?
Begging is being tried?
Opening a business depends on having lots of money and money to back it, doesn't?
I believe you already know that.
Elk Konnected, LLC has shown in this thread they have money, why not use it?
If they want to start a business?
Or go back to the various Kansas agencies for more grants?
Or has their failure to run a business disqualified them from all that free money?

Isn't this why Elk Konnected, LLC doesn't like qiestions, because they have no answers?
Their answer to me appears to be to beg for more!

Is the majority of the people of Elk County wrong?
Is Elk Konnected, LLC the only one that is right all the time?
If so, why all the failures on Elk Konnected, LLC and Konnected Kounty Kommissioners?

Is Socialism the answer to all of Elk Konnected, LLC's decisions?
Is everyone in Elk County suppose to give, give, and give to the begging of Elk Konnected, LLC and Konnected Kounty Kommissioners?

I think Elk County can do better!

Transparency isn't going to ever happen in my opinion!

So let's get out there and vote for some positive Change, Okay?
 
Let's change things, let's take our County Government back.

Write-in  Mr. Wunderlich

And vote for  Mr. Hebb

Ross, that retort of yours to J. is exactly why people very quickly give up trying to talk to you about anything. You immediately swung your sails into the wind to get right back to scuttling EK and your personal feelings and ideas instead of talking about the difficulties of any individual trying to start a daycare there.   Who would you like to have do a study? YOU?  You don't trust anyone else.  Who would to pay for it? How long would it take? What would be done with the information and by whom? How would you know it was a valid study? You are such a skeptic of such things.
I'm off to do some more classes.

[redcliffsw]

Ross takes a stand against the socialists' causes.  Of course, there'd
be something wrong that - especially in Diane's opinion and her
people.

People know their people.  Ross, you stay right in there.

[proelkco]

Ross try keeping your banners on your Elk Konnected hate site. The day care is for children not your band stand. Diane you are so right about Ross. Lets all give Julie a big thank you for always being or at least trying to be positive.

[Diane Amberg]

Red, your needle is stuck too.You see "undesirables" under every leaf and behind every tree. "My People?" now that's funny!
   Perhaps you could do that study that Ross thinks he wants. Suppose three private different individuals now decide  to start new day cares. They go borrow to start up. Is Ross going to come out against the last one in line because that person is taking the food out of the other peoples mouths? What if any of them fail?
  What if the poorest folks can't afford to send their kids there? Would a subsidized preschool help them out because they can ask less, still pay the professional staff and make ends meet? Is there really a problem or is it more empty speculation?

Proelkkon:

Who appointed you monitor of the forum,  are you in control of the forum and Elk County, If not, I'll put banners where ever I desire as long as the owners of the forum do not object. You sir are out of line trying to control the forum, IMHO! Bad mouth me all you want, it does not show your positive attitude very well.

As far as Julie, I happen to like her and respect her, I happen to think she is a terrific person. I was in no way putting her down. I was expressing my opinion and view point.

The Daycare being discussed here is Elk Konnected, LLC having a desire to start a business, supported as a welfare company, with the intention of making money for Elk Konnected and supported by Konnected Kounty Kommissioners as I see it! And. I don't see how you can disguise that?

Will the Elk Konnected, LLC provide free daycare?
I doubt it?
What do you think they will ask, $300 or $400 a month pauable on advance?
It will be free going one way right?
If a family can't afford their prices will Elk Konnected. LLC be willing to provide free care to beggars?
After all they are begging for the stuff to start the Daycare, right?

Using the children of Elk County as a crutch is just wrong, I think that is called exploiting the children for the bennefit of Elk Konnected, LLC. Wich IMHO has been the major tool of Elk Konnected, LLC and the Konnected Kounty Kommissioners!

So with all that positive you speak of is really not true is it?
If you have such a positive attitude, show it, say something positive about taking back our County Government and something positive about the following, please! Put up or stop all that positive crap! Show your positive, now!

That's why we need new County Commissioners and I recommend the following:

So let's get out there and vote for some positive Change, Okay?
 
Let's change things, let's take our County Government back.

Write-in  Mr. Wunderlich

And vote for  Mr. Hebb

A Great Improvement,  Great POSITIVE change For Elk County
Actually an Amazing Improvement For Elk County

As Larry the Cable Guy own catchphrase says "Git-Er-Done!"

Ross, that retort of yours to J. is exactly why people very quickly give up trying to talk to you about anything.

My comments and response was not in my opinion a retort as defined, A sharp, angry, or wittily incisive reply to a remark. Nor was it incisive which is Intelligently analytical and clear-thinking. My remarks were only my opinion as a redneck, hick. And as I said I happen to like and respect Julie, but does that mean I have to agree with her or her to agree with me on anything of everything? I don't think so and I bet she doesn't think so.

You immediately swung your sails into the wind to get right back to scuttling EK and your personal feelings and ideas instead of talking about the difficulties of any individual trying to start a daycare there.

Let me repeat myself:

The Daycare being discussed here is Elk Konnected, LLC having a desire to start a business, supported as a welfare company, with the intention of making money for Elk Konnected and supported by Konnected Kounty Kommissioners as I see it! And. I don't see how you can disguise that?

Using the children of Elk County as a crutch is just wrong, I think that is called exploiting the children for the benefit of Elk Konnected, LLC. Which IMHO has been the major tool of Elk Konnected, LLC and the Konnected Kounty Kommissioners!

 Who would you like to have do a study? YOU?  You don't trust anyone else.  Who would to pay for it? How long would it take? What would be done with the information and by whom? How would you know it was a valid study? You are such a skeptic of such things.

That is the heart of the problem isn't it?
Who can you trust?
Right?
Like Agenda 21?
Agenda 21 is a comprehensive plan of action to be taken globally, nationally and locally by organizations of the United Nations System, Governments, and Major Groups.

I'm off to do some more classes.

Are those classes in socialism that you are taking? Barb for Barb? I couldn't resist, the devil made me do it! LOL
