[quote=Anonymous][quote]Fine. I still want someone to address my questions at 11:10. I don't get why OP or any other parent just assumed they could easily get free childcare starting at age 3. This is not standard anywhere in this country. I am well aware that we got very very lucky (and we are therefore very very grateful), but we were in no way "counting" on getting a spot at any decent school. So I truly would like to know why others were as though it is not common knowledge that there are very few spots to go around. [/quote] I dont' think anyone is assuming they could get free childcare. Its more that...some people do get it and some people don't and its either a matter of luck and/or where you live, so it seems random and thus to some people, unfair. headstart was a much better model, frankly, for divvying up scare resources. At least there you have a baseline for why some people get a slot and others dont. [/quote]
