Lying in a Room of
One's Own How Women's Studies Textbooks Miseducate
Students, by Christine Stolba
Independent Women's Forum
www.iwf.org, ©2002, p. 23 |
A noticeable bias in favor of daycare is also
present in Women’s Studies textbooks. Women’s Realities,
Women’s
Choices, for example, complains that “the United States in the 1990s stands
almost alone among industrialized societies in having a very limited
national family policy with regard to such social supports...as child care
facilities.” No mention is made of the fact that survey data reveal that
Americans find institutionalized daycare settings the least desirable forms
of childcare.

America's Childcare 'Crisis': Early Advocacy
vs. Mother-care
by Thomas J. Shaheen and Seth Johnston,
Briefings for the Future of
Pennsylvania's Families, ©2002 |
Most people who have visited day care centers --
even high quality centers that focus on education -- realize that very
little one-on-one interaction occurs. Center-based childcare is
simply not made for these kinds of relationships.
Even in the most highly regulated child day care setting, one-on-one
interaction between caretakers and children is nearly impossible.

America's Childcare 'Crisis': Early Advocacy
vs. Mother-care
by Thomas J. Shaheen and Seth Johnston,
Briefings for the Future of
Pennsylvania's Families, ©2002 |
The problem with center-based care is that
children are cared for by several different people throughout the day and
week. Multiple childcare arrangements (such as center-based care part
of the week, and care by a baby-sitter the other part) are common for
children who spend time in non-parental care.

The more time children spend in group care
arrangements, like day care, the more likely they are to develop behavioral
problems in the early school years.

Attachment and Childcare
by Stone Wolfsong, MA, the Director of
Family and Child Services and Education at Red Rocks Community College instituteforattachment.org,
Institute for
Attachment & Child Developement, ©2002 |
...the more I observe the reality of child care
and the more I learn about brain development and the primal importance of
early relationships, the more alarmed I am.
...The missing information in the research, however, is the effect of
full-time childcare on developing brains. While you may read that "research"
demonstrates that high-quality childcare does not impact the attachment
relationship between young children and their parents, what you don't
read is that only 6% of our country's licensed child care centers and homes
provide high quality care.
