Funding Child Rearing: Child Allowance and Parental Leave.
Walker, James R.
Future of Children, v6 n2 p122-36 Sum-Fall 1996
Two financing plans are proposed to address needs for an allowance for poor households to fund child-care: financing from redirected existing funds; and a program of voluntary parental leave to ensure the adequacy of infant care, financed through a payroll tax increase. These proposals would help parents balance work and family obligations. (SLD)
