Daycare Bombshell Hits the "Village"
by Phyllis Schlafly
eagleforum.org, 2-May-01 |
Children who spend more than 30 hours a week in
daycare were found to be more demanding, more noncompliant, and more
aggressive. They scored higher on things like gets in lots of fights,
cruelty, bullying, meanness, talking too much, and making demands that must
be met immediately.
The study found a direct correlation between time spent in daycare and a
child's aggression, defiance and disobedience. The findings held true
regardless of the type or quality of daycare, the sex of the child, the
family's socioeconomic status, or the quality of the mother care. Why
is anybody surprised that social science research is confirming reality?

Dissenters to the Liberal Line on Day Care
By Reed Irvine and Cliff Kincaid

We were struck by media coverage of a new
government study showing the negative effects of day care for children. It
found a correlation between day care and defiance, disobedience and
aggression in children. On the CBS Evening News, Dan Rather went to...an
"expert." She advocated more spending on day care. (Another expert),
who was on ABC World News Tonight, also favors more spending on day care.
The liberal media didn't go to any expert who favored measures to reduce
taxes on families and make it easier for parents to spend more time with
their children.
But those experts exist.

Dissenters to the Liberal Line on Day Care
By Reed Irvine and Cliff Kincaid

But if the liberal media are determined
to go to a liberal group for comment, one is available that takes a rather
unorthodox view of the problem.
Charles Siegel of the Preservation Institute is a liberal, a member of the
Green Party, who's been taking out ads in publications such as the Nation
magazine asking, "What's Wrong with Day Care?" That's also the title of his
new book. Siegel's research doesn't demonstrate a link between day care and
aggression or disobedience. But he cites circumstantial evidence that day
care may produce adults with little inner life, little capacity for
intimacy, and no commitment to ideas or ideals.

Of course, the typical liberal solution
is to tax families even more to pay for government-run day care. That's more
of the same, even worse. But that's the approach favored by the media.
