Just found this site, ok it is actively encouraging stay at home mums but it has complied a list of scientific evidence from many different areas to back their claims up.
Site here: ftmuk.wordpress.com/childcare-research/
The research offered up states that:
Nursery children arrive at school with bad attitude
High working hours lead to family breakdown
Children under three are clearly better off being cared for by their mothers.
Daycare increases maternal employment but not family income
Children in daycare from infancy are less compliant, more aggressive and more likely to have behavioural problems.
Mothers going back to work early leads to slower emotional development in their children
Children in daycare from infancy are less compliant, more aggressive and more likely to have behavioural problems.
Away from mother?s care between 1-5 increase chances of problems later in life
and more!!!
Its such a scary read but so much of my instinct tells me it is true.
Thoughts anyone?
Ethical dilemmas
OMG...childcare mentally damages children!!
