Jeanette, a girl living on Stephanie's dormitory floor, and her friend Laura, were in the hallway outside the bath- room when they heard what they thought was a baby's cry!

  • CONCERNS ABOUT CHILD CARE Bill Muehlenberg Updated January 2009
    CONCERNS ABOUT CHILD CARE Bill Muehlenberg Updated January 2009 Introduction I. Day care can be harmful to children II. Quality in day care III. Preference for home IV. Choice for women V. Recommendations Conclusion Introduction Modern life is full of pressures which were not around just several decades ago. Today the battle to pay off the family home and meet other financial needs is becoming increasingly more difficult. A single wage is often not sufficient. As a result more and more families are relying on two incomes to get them through. The need for out of home child care has therefore risen markedly. Moreover, the large increase in the number of single parents has also meant a greater demand for formal child care. With over $1.5 billion a year spent on child care by Australian Governments, child care is big business. And with over 600,000 children involved, it affects a lot of people.1 There is no denying that child care is a growth industry. Indeed, Commonwealth spending alone has risen 160 per cent between 1991 and 2001. In 2001 dollars it grew from $573 million to $1,490 million.2 But with the growth there have been questions raised. Concerns about child care are being expressed from a number of quarters. How does parental absence affect the child? With growing numbers of children being raised by strangers, what effects will this have on society in the near future? It is important that these questions and concerns are addressed before more growth takes place. This paper will examine some of these considerations.

It may not be copied, distributed, or reproduced in any fashion, neither in print, electronically, or any other medium, regardless of whether for fee or gratis, without the written permission of the author. “SMALL BUT MIGHTY HOST” BENEFIT AND FUND RAISING DOLLS IN THE CIVIL WAR Virginia Mescher “The doll is one of the most imperious necessities, and at the same time one of the most charming instincts of female childhood. To care for, to clothe, to adorn, to dress, to undress, to dress over again, to teach, to scold a little, to rock the cradle, to put to sleep, imagine that something is somebody—all the future of woman is there. Even when musing and prattling, when making little wardrobes and little baby clothes, while sewing little dresses, little bodices, and little jackets, the child becomes a little girl, the little girl becomes a great girl, the great girl becomes a woman. The first baby takes the place of the last doll.”—Victor Hugo Les Miserables “Leaves from Little Daughter’s Life,” April 1861, Harper’s New Monthly We often read about how funds were raised in the civil war. Taxes were levied; branches of the United States Sanitary Commission (established in 1861) held fairs in many northern cities, north and south, individual people donated both money and supplies to their respective causes, women gave of their time for sewing, knitting, making comfort bags, writing letters, and numerous other “comforts from home” for their soldiers and children knitted, wrote letters, set up fairs, and sent their pennies.
