LOL.You know a mom, who had a child with a man could probably just stay at home and watch the child herself. Or maybe he would do it, or possibly they both could!This worries me, we need to expand our help given to families with children, the article shows some proposals:
How Child Care Is Becoming A Crisis In America
Child care is both an economic necessity and barrier to employment for most families:
65 percent of children under six have either both parents or a single parent in the workforce. At the same time, most working parents encounter significant barriers to finding affordable, high-quality child care.
The cost of child care is increasing squeezing middle class families and has become unaffordable for many low-income families. Child care is a major household cost and it is increasingly eating up a larger portion of the family budget. The average annual cost of full-time care in a center is over $10,000, with some areas topping $16,000. Between 2000 and 2012, a typical middle class family saw child care expenses rise by $2,300 while wages remained stagnant. The situation is even more dire for families living in poverty; among those that pay for child care, they spend over one-third of total income on child care.
Perhaps because so many families face the need for child care and the inability to pay for it, improving access to quality, affordable child care is shaping up to be a key issue in the 2016 election. Hillary Clinton has called child care a critical economic issue and proposes making “quality, affordable child care” a national priority. Bernie Sanders recently criticized the current approach to child care as inadequate and called on better training and pay for child care providers. Likewise, Martin O’Malley proposes increasing access to safe and affordable child care as a means to closing the opportunity gap for future generations. As the election grows closer, Republicans will also need to address this growing burden for families.
In addition to cost constraints, parents are also likely to encounter few options for quality care, especially in low-income neighborhoods that are largely “service deserts” when it comes to finding good child care. High-quality child care often costs significantly more and may not be available in low-income or rural areas. Child care for infants under age one is especially hard to find and expensive, as young children require more intensive caregiving and specialized equipment like cribs.
The current child care subsidy system, funded through the Child Care and Development Block Grant, or CCDBG, provides an average annual benefit of $4,900 for a child care center which is rarely adequate for families to purchase high-quality child care. However, after decades of brain research we now know that children need access to nurturing and enriching environments from birth that support healthy development and early learning.
Gee, you mean Obamanomics are't taking off???LOL.You know a mom, who had a child with a man could probably just stay at home and watch the child herself.

Kind of hard when wages are stagnant.
The same, hilarious response put forth by rwnj's, completely without context or basic commons sense.Here's a novel idea. Don't have kids until you can afford them!!
YOU just admitted you were a bum sucking off tax dollars and hiding in a school. AND you lack the morals to raise kids without government funding. If a person makes the child the person should raise the child otherwise zip up and move on.What the hell? You're all a bunch of silly trolls who have nothing of substance to contribute, I don't have any children right now, I'm worried about the cost of child care that keeps going up and puts strain on middle class/poor families.If you're worried about child care and can't afford it, you're in the wrong line of work.Yes, because everyone in college doesn't work..OK college boy. You know nothing about anything. Once you receive your first paycheck, and sees how much the government takes, that will be a lesson for you.The fuck? You know nothing about me except that I'm attending college.He doesn't care..he's a school boy and mommy is paying his way..
HE doesn't even PAY any taxes..so naturally he's an expert on how to spend tax money.
of course there's always the possibility he's a sock for one of these hyperpartisan progressives with their cute little clown avatars...
Is that supposed to be a statistic? Sounds like a left wing idiot wrote it specifically to not say anything.LOL.You know a mom, who had a child with a man could probably just stay at home and watch the child herself. Or maybe he would do it, or possibly they both could!This worries me, we need to expand our help given to families with children, the article shows some proposals:

I said I was in college, if that's what you infer from that, then you're a fucking moron.YOU just admitted you were a bum sucking off tax dollars and hiding in a school.

That's a statistic, and wages have been stagnant for decades, both parents have to work these days, in many cases,to make ends meet with rising prices..Is that supposed to be a statistic?

I'm trolling my own thread? You're the idiots who came in and started spouting false ad-homs. It's fine if you do that if you actually address the fucking thread.The resident right wing circlejerkers have taken the thread with irrelevant ad homs, falsehoods, and stupidity. They're a cancer on this site.
trolling your own thread...again...
go do your homework, scooter..
Don't talk about my parents or those I'm close to, it's none of your fucking business. And no, I don't have a girlfriend at the moment, so how can this imaginary girlfriend you hypothesize be pregnant?So, have you told your parents you got your girlfriend pregnant yet???That's a statistic, and wages have been stagnant for decades, both parents have to work these days, in many cases,to make ends meet with rising prices..Is that supposed to be a statistic?

Why would I need a babysitter? If you want to talk about helping children get affordable child care, which is the purpose of this thread, go right ahead. If you want to continue spewing ad homs, go right ahead, let the rw circlejerk show it's true color.Can we get David a babysitter???If only we had more government programs.........

leftist created the single parent - 2 working parents idea. Cons told them it would have the children, but they didn't give a fuck and said "war on women".
and now you have the ignorant fucking idea that you can fix what you broke by spending more money.
$18 Trillion in debt isn't enough for you idiots, you really want to destroy America from within with more and more "help" from the government.
do you have the slightest grasp of what will happen to all of us once that debt becomes way to much?
of course not, "war on women" "war on kids" and "You're a racist"
