©2004,
P 126 |
A final rationalization...is the claim that children "just love day
care," that they can't wait to get there and never want to leave.
If a child has always been in day care, then day care is where the child is
most comfortable. Day care is home, so of course they want to be
there.
A child may love (or say he loves) day care, but he also loves candy.

consistently bring censure, even if they are directly questioned they will
dutifully repeat that they like day care," write the Dreskins*
William and Wendy Dreskin, former daycare providers, and authors of The
Day Care Decision - What's Best for You and Your Child

It is disturbing
that we have become so used to day care...
Children do not raise themselves, and they do not "thrive" in day care.
They just get used to it.
