[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Free free free. I want everything for me.  I am a parent and you owe me that .

Yee haw! [/quote]

You actually do owe me.  We have no future without children.

Did you go to public school, PP? [/quote]

DP but nope we sure don't. Posting the same question in bad faith about public school over and over again doesn't change that, unfortunately.[/quote]

It’s actually on point.  We, as American taxpayers, fully fund public school education from k thru 12 for the betterment of our society.  Those of us comparing public school with daycare are exactly on point.  Why public school and not daycare?  It’s outdated thinking to say education starts at five.  Learning starts at birth.

It’s a very apt comparison, PP.  Even if you don’t send your kids to public school, you’re still paying for it.  [/quote]

K is when academics start.  Birth-5 is day care.  Big difference.[/quote]

except birth-3 is the prime developmental foundation period. wtf. [/quote]

This is what mother's should be doing![/quote]

Why?  And how?  The question of affordability aside, how many parents have college degrees in Early Childhood Development and can provide a stimulating atmosphere for a baby one to five years of age?  What about socialization?

The simple fact is that the housewife-home-with-kids model has been proven not to be the best for brain development.

And “academics” start way before age five!  [/quote]

Since when do mother's need a degree in anything to be able to teach their children!?  Two of my children graduated in the top ten percent of their class in both high school and The college and the third is a sophomore and on the Dean's List.  I do not have a degree in Early Childhood Development.  So, obviously, this degree is no needed.  Let's be honest.  There is no childcare crisis only lazy parents who care more about themselves than they do their children.[/quote]

You can’t say how much better off your kids would have been had you had a degree in ECD.  Honestly. If you kept them engaged and learning.  Your kids could have been smarter or happier or more creative or better problem solvers, etc.    The more you know… [/quote]
