With the money, the government implements programs to control the family unit such as child care. But we don t want the government dictating the upbringing of children. Approximately 13 million children under age six spend at least part of the day under a person s care other than their parents. So, this issue personally affects many families. So, we suggest removing the necessity, rather than subsidizing it.
Parents have another reason for being anxious about day-care centers the presence of safety hazards.
At least 56 children have died in child-care settings since 1990. Undoubtedly, many child-care providers truly love the children they watch. However, no amount of regulation could ever guarantee the safety and well-being of children. Further, no provider could match the careful monitoring by parents nor the loving bond between parents and their children. But to achieve the good start and reduced stress, parents and children need more time together.
