Childcare in Canada
familyfacts.ca, 8-Jun-04 |
The implicit assertion is that
child rearing is best left to heavily regulated and publicly funded
professionals, further devaluing the role of parents. Of course if you
start with the assumption that we must have daycare centres and daycare
homes, then it is only logical that you would want them to be the best
possible. The problem is that a greater emphasis on daycare centres and
homes may not be in the best interests of children and parents.

Childcare in Canada
familyfacts.ca, 8-Jun-04 |
Research has proven that the care of a loving parent is still far better for
a child than even the most dedicated professional daycare worker with all
the education in the world.
...Instead of spending billions on expanding the
role of daycare centres, governments should be lowering the tax burden on
families so they can make their own decisions on how to care for their
children. That way those families who want to have a parent stay at home can
realize that dream. The evidence is clear. The more that parents are
involved in the child rearing decisions and the less role government plays
the better the outcomes for our children.

the more time
children spend in day care arrangements before they are 4 1/2 years old the
more aggression, disobedience and conflict with adults they manifest at...
...Not that you'd know any of this from reading the NICHD's press release or
listening to many of the commentators. The results, after all, are not
politically popular: many have made their careers representing good child
care as a sort of social cure-all.

Have your say,
by David Klein, bendigo.yourguide.com.au, 28-Sep-04 |
Only when the final
child care place (daycare) is built and the last child is placed and its
last tears are wiped, will we finally realise that once there was a child
care worker called Mum or Dad in a place called home.
