Description
The Daycare Myth: What We Get Wrong about Early Care and Education and What We Should Do About It For a century, America's early childhood policy has been based on a fundamental misconception. This myth, which separates child care and education, not only fails to optimize the most critical period of human development but also wastes taxpayer dollars. Dan Wuori, a respected bipartisan policy expert, challenges this approach and makes the case for why the early years matter. Wuori's book invites readers to rethink their understanding of the early years, outlining a bipartisan case for change. With straightforward guidance, he argues that the current system sacrifices the needs of young children to promote adult employment. This timely book is a wake-up call for a nation seeking to transform its early childhood landscape. By shedding light on the myth and proposing solutions, Wuori empowers readers to help correct the system.
