[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My feeling is, it will always be a struggle to transition from lots of time at home with parents to lots of time at school in a structured environment regardless of the age you do it. I always assume the older the better in terms of cortisol and brain development for encountering major struggles. I see no advantage to have this struggle as a toddler instead of as a kindergartener.[/quote] The advantage is the parents get more childcare. Childcare can be very helpful for families financially. And mountains of research say the impact on the child is minimal, with home life much, much more important than the number of hours in preschool/daycare.[/quote] Yes, true. I meant for parents who don’t need the childcare or who have one wanting to stay home for whatever reason.[/quote]
