Do you feel mothers should be sanctioned for their belief that toddlers are better off with their mothers or that daycare is unsafe? P. 69
It should depend on the circumstances. I did know a family who had a child every year that would have seen the mom go to work. She even told me that it was time to have another child as soon as the youngest was ready to start kindergarten so she wouldn’t have to go to work and at that time she wanted a bigger welfare check as well. She and her husband had six kids and would have kept going, but the law changed and she was told she wouldn’t get more money for anymore children. Neither of them worked and they ran a drug store out of their home. Yes they should have been sanctioned
In Joanne’s case she was legitimately trying to get off welfare.
No, but I do see loopholes. They should be allowed to stay home until the babes are 2 or 3, but if they have more children, they should be sanctioned, not just allowed to stay home for another 2 or 3 years.
How is the utilization of the day care subsidy limited? P.
