You know what bothered me most about this segment? It wasn't the dirty, unsafe environments, it wasn't the TRULY "illegal daycares" (as opposed to someone who is simply unlicensed).....I think we all forcasted the CBC was going to highlight the worst of the worst and use fear-mongering to scare parents away from home daycare. Nope, none of that really phased me because I was expecting it.
What DID bother me was the line in the piece about how we, as HOME daycare providers are simply in it because it for the money. That "expert", Martha Friendly (who, by the way, according to her bio, has never actually worked in a centre or provided daycare in any capacity - she researches daycare) said that providing daycare is an "economic activity". WHY is that so bad???? Isn't EVERY parent who drops off their child in the care of someone else doing it for MONEY? Seriously, any time a parent drops of their kid into the care of someone else to go and earn MONEY is no different than us.
Why are we always made to be BAD because we expect financial retribution for doing a JOB?
