Schools Should Provide Teenage Parents with Daycare

As the times change, the statistical data inevitably changes. For each student who has not graduated from high school, another statistic is displayed. An American epidemic that is likely to appear forever is a problem of breeding and pregnancy in adolescence. According to a teenhelp.com article on teen pregnancy, the United States is considered to be the leading country of teen pregnancy in the western industrialized world.

Northwestern High School is located in Prince George County, Maryland, offering day care programs and parenting programs for young parents. Their mission is to "support high school alumni". Although the program is small scale (more than dozens of participating students), their graduation rate is incredibly 95%. Robert L. Campbell Child Care Center was established with the aim of helping parenting young people to complete high school education and at the same time to reduce repeated pregnancy and parenting skills. The childcare center offers in-campus child care programs for children under 2 years of age. The center was founded in 1992 and has an average of 12 graduates per year.

Not all parents want to use the regular daycare centers. In fact, day care centers are usually at the bottom when parents are investigated about their ideal choice. For example, when a survey company's Public Agenda asked parents of children under the age of 5 the best parenting arrangements, 70% thought parents were the best at home. Only 6% believe that a high quality day care center is the best choice. "Parents should rely on day care centers only if there are no other options."

Discussion about being at home is obvious: no matter how good the day care center is, it does not satisfy the love and parenting that parents can offer to their children. The staff of day care centers are not parents but employees, they do not bring true true one-on-one attention and love to parents. Not only that, as the actual economic loss caused by having a full-time parent is usually not as much as you think. Since parents can make meals at home, you can save day care costs, work transportation expenses, work arrival costs, meal expenses with colleagues, and some family expenses.

The cost of 'child rearing' usually represents inequality. Assuming that parents or grandparents do not provide "nursing fees" for daycare food, toys, directors and shelters, governments and nursery schools often count as expenses to be paid by parents for third- We deal with them. Child care is often seen as a kind of government subsidies for specific types of care, especially for government inspection and supervision. The government pays approximately $ 10,000 per child per child per year, which is the cost of all taxpayers, day care users, or non-daycare users. The third way to investigate child-rearing expenses is to compare them with other aspects of living expenses. Some economists consider "parenting" as one of many basic expenses of food and housing expenses for parents. Prices range from $ 4,600 in Mississippi to $ 15,000 in Massachusetts.
