Overview

There is more childcare available and more parents are using it, but it is not of higher quality and it is not more affordable. Psychologists are still asking whether children should be in daycare at all--today the particular concern is for young infants--and parents are still having trouble finding high-quality services. These problems will not be resolved anytime soon. There must be a concerted effort to educate all Americans--those in positions of power as well as those with young children--about the importance of good daycare. This book is dedicated to that effort.
