Well to be fair, that's what it costs in many European countries, too.
That's why many women don't work. The cost is basically as high as a low paying or part time job.
That's why everyone needs free daycare. That will generate a higher GDP for everyone.
Interesting point. We should re-normalize the idea of the stay-at-home mom.
Let's be real, the people who promoted women going to work were almost always willing to shame those who decided not to. Let's stop doing that.
Stay at home parents should get paid. If free daycare would cost the government $20 a day, offer stay at home parents $10 a day and you save money while allowing people to raise their kids instead of strangers.
$10 a day? What is this 1915?
