No, you are being perfectly reasonable. Just like I wasn't insane when I didn't understand why the university students were so upset about their tuition being raised. You know, the tuition that costs them a fraction of what it costs students outside The Motherland.
We lived in Quebec for a couple years (with kids) and I wouldn't send my kids to any of the $7/day places because my brain just couldn't how they could provide quality care for such a low rate. I also witnessed some extraordinarily negligent care from some of those daycares.
Back in BC, I was thrilled to pay $30-35/day since it meant there were enough daycares around that I could move my kids if I became unhappy with their care. The daycares were well aware this and therefore always treated us well.
I loved living in Quebec, but the $7/day daycare system leaves a lot to be desired.
