Untangling the Web of Infant Care Advocacy.
Zimiles, Herbert
Phi Delta Kappan, v79 n8 p590-91 Apr 1998
In the zeal to promote much-needed governmental funding of infant day care, there is tendency to glamorize alternative care-giving arrangements. In most cases, the quality of infant care will be optimized when delivered at home by mature, competent parents or parent surrogates. These benefits should not be devalued to bolster the cause of infant day care. (MLH)
