www.profam.org, June 2002 |
Unfortunately, it is even harder to keep the
antibiotic germs that evolve in the day care center confined to the day care
center than it is to keep those that evolve in the hospital confined to the
hospital. For unlike hospital patients, day care children go home every
evening, often as carriers of newly virulent strains of pathogens.
Pediatricians worry about how "children congregating in day care centers
pass on resistant bugs to each other and later to their families and society
at large". In part because of the remarkable way day care has helped to
spread superbugs, many health officials now fear that "medicine's
purported
triumph over infectious disease has become an illusion.

Though it is quite understandable that the sharp
declines in breastfeeding trouble health authorities, breast milk is
probably not what day care child lack most. Child psychologist Burton
White regards increasing use of day care as "a disaster," because children
in such settings do not receive the "large doses of custom-made love"
a mother can give them at home.
