[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Pay teachers and childcare workers more. They can make almost as much working in fast food but are responsible for the health, safety, and education of your children.[/quote] Agree this is a core problem- but where would the money come from?[/quote] From the families who need childcare. Now, personally, I think childcare should be subsidized by the government, on a sliding scale for all families making less than 250K a year (and free for those making under about 100K) for up to 2 kids. And I think that if a parent decides to stay home, they should get the amount that they would be subsidized if they used outside childcare. But until then, parents have to decide if they can afford to pay enough to find reliable childcare. [/quote]
