[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mothers do call daycare "school" to make themselves feel better about leaving their child for the day.  Yes, I am sure the child learns in daycare but that is not the reason daycares exist.  Daycares exist to care for babies, toddlers and preschoolers when the parents are away/working.  [/quote]

And SAHMs are annoyed at parents calling preschool classes within daycare "school," because it makes them feel better about having their child home all day instead of learning and socializing with other children.  They don't want to anyone to think other child are learning while their kid is hanging out at the local playground.  I have had children in both traditional half-day preschool and the preschool class in a daycare. The curriculum is nearly identical. My first went to traditional preschool.  My second is in the preschool class in a daycare. I'm not moving the second child to another school because I have seen the curriculum in both - the kids spend their days doing the same things. We call them both school. Suck it if you don't like it. [/quote]
