[quote=Anonymous]I have enormous respect for women who SAH. I could not, and daycare has been a huge blessing for us. We were lucky to find a wonderful center with great ratios and warm, caring teachers (I have an early childhood expert in my family who has seen a lot of child care settings and confirmed this). If you look at the research (which is all observational), there are potentially positive and negative outcomes from daycare, but it's important to note that: - family and home characteristics have a bigger impact than whether the child is in child care - if the child care is high quality then the negative impacts are lessened. Unfortunately because of the lack of investment in child care, it is extremely expensive and quality is hit or miss, and that's really bad for kids and for families.[/quote]
