I have a feeling they’ll be needing both Cally’s and the Chief’s hands and expertise fixing planes and doing all the things they’ve always done to keep the Colonial defenses up to spec. Doubtless, proper division of labor will involve less-skilled members of the fleet being recruited for day-care. I wouldn’t expect Cally to be rack-bound for too much longer.

That would be good employment for those indentured servants convicted of being Traitorous Assholes. Those who were going to be Heroes In Ski Masks With Guns can change diapers and clean up barf.

Have we so soon forgotten _Black Market_? We know what Colonial child care is like. Kid’s would be safer on Zarek’s prison ship.

But what if you can space the care taker when the kid has diaper rash?

Not so much safer, but certainly more efficient to have the kids already in Zarek’s clutches before he sends them to the black market he ended up controlling.
