"Is the Workplace Becoming a Surrogate Home?"
by David M. Wagner,
page 99, Family Policy Review,
Volume 1, Number 2, Fall 2003 (The Child-Care 'Crisis' and Its Remedies)

Child-care and business leaders of course, are eager to discuss child-care
"issues"--but only the ones that revolve around how to increase the funding,
support, and quality of institutional child care. Making the option of
full-time child-rearing (a.k.a., staying at home) more feasible is simply
not among the allowed "issues" within the community of "child-care
advocates"....despite evidence that many women desire this option.

"Is the Workplace Becoming a Surrogate Home?"

Whenever the (media) reports on a new study that suggests that day
care...might hurt kids, a few days later they publish a follow-up piece to
'put the findings in context.'"
(This) is the defensiveness of an elite that cannot allow day care...to be
seen as (a bad idea.)

"Is the Workplace Becoming a Surrogate Home?"
by David M. Wagner,
page 106, Family Policy Review, Fall 2003 (The Child-Care 'Crisis' and Its Remedies)
|
...a human-resources executive at Johnson & Johnson...noted that his
company's day-care program was inspired not by employee demand but by
articles in business magazines declaring that this was the way to go.
Perhaps even more remarkably, he noted that Johnson & Johnson would stick
with its in-house day-care program, despite its costs, even though the
company was going through a period of belt-tightening that included some
"downsizing." Evidently, there was something about those employees who used
the day-care facility that made (them) more important than to retain the
people that were let go (laid off)
