"It Takes A Mom
vs. Day Care",'The Voice' Online, www.afwuf.org, Fall
2001 |
It's always gratifying to have our
instincts affirmed by scientifically verifiable studies. But there is
also a certain sadness that accompanies reading these studies.
There are real children at these day care centres,
after school programs and summer camps; real children who are sad and acting
out because they are sad. The acting out continues as they enter
the school system and on into adult life. These negative experiences affect
not only the child himself but all those around him.

...Children's Services
Minister...announced that the government would begin subsidizing the wages
of...daycare workers.
...This means that every Canadian family where mother cares for the family's
children is subsidizing the lifestyle choice of those who daily put their
children in an institution. Government subsidies to
harm children. Now that's sad.

Is it any wonder that daycare hours are getting
longer? Many are open twelve hours a day. And daycares now let parents dump
newborns as young as two weeks, boasting stimulating educational "programs"
designed to make parents' absences seem beneficial.

I know this mindset all too well - I've been
there myself. As a divorced mom, I've been working full-time since my
children were tiny...
But looking back, I think I made a mistake.

After four years in daycare, my daughter still
begs me every morning not to leave her behind. She'd gladly trade
her action-packed day, with swimming and crafts, for a few hours at
home on the sofa with me.

At first, I resisted...Then, I realized:
shouldn't somebody be listening to her? I only regret that I didn't hear her
little voice sooner.

Society, I saw, had devalued the parent-child
relationship to the extent that it's now a spare-time pursuit.

Kids need parents. A
simple formula, but twisted around many times over.
Even "quality time," that often used excuse for neglect, is being
eroded. You can skip the breakfast cereal routine if the daycare opens at
six.
