Your broadcast of this did not reflect the positive aspect of vocabulary attainment. Also, the researchers interview contradicts the definition of quality. He stated that quality of the day care center "didn't matter" in regard to the results. A point I have with the operational definition which the researchers defined as "child care" I feel is unreasonable, even a "stay at home mom" of higher social economic status, has reguarly scheduled help or other kids to take care of, work in classrooms etc. I would think that the behavioral differences would be apparent in children who spend 8 or more hours a day at a center from a young age. In the end it is all relative and the strongest indicator for an thriving and typically developing child is the parent interations. Unfortunately, many women are going to use this "information" that was on your broadcast to continue to "guilt" out working moms and provide validation for them staying at home. Next time you report on a literature based study, maybe define the parameters of the study beyond the number of participants. In the end, we all know lots of kids whose mothers stayed home and did everything for them and they end up sad and dysfuntional and we also have know lots of "latch key kids" who were said to be doomed to failure and unhappiness and who are thriving today. Hopefully, we can strike a relative balance and respect everyones decision for a career and family. From, A working mom in education
