An effective childcare program
Have you heard about the nationwide child care program? You know about the Peace Corps, AmeriCorps, VISTA and other programs. Now there is a national volunteer program for quality day care!
Under this program the volunteers will begin their work when a young couple starts their family. They will be better than nannies because they will enter the hospital and will be present when the first child is born, and for every subsequent child. They will follow the family home and just like motherhood they will really get to know each child. The volunteers will do quality pre-school teaching right in the home.
The children will not be subjected to the diseases, wild behavior, foul language, strange ideas and bad attitudes that children now pick up in day care centers. Family life will be much less frantic. There will be many other benefits. The volunteers will act as a block watch. Having a volunteer in each home every day will greatly reduce truancy, vandalism, juvenile delinquency, underage drinking, drug abuse, sexually transmitted diseases and teenage pregnancy; let alone children killing children. And none of this will cost a penny in taxes!
What is its name? You already know all about this time-tested, ancient, best possible, Divinely-created child care program called... motherhood.
