Briefly highlight the benefits of how infant childcare affects later development
What will be an ideal response?
Answer: The newest research from a long-term Study of Early Child Care and Youth Development suggests that there may be unanticipated consequences to long-term participation in day care as follows: 1) High quality day care produces only minor differences from home care and may even enhance certain aspects of development. 2) Children from single-parent families and low-income households may benefit from educational and social experiences in day care. 3) Children who participate in Early Head Start can solve problems better, pay attention to others, and use language more effectively. 4) Participating parents talk and read more to their children, and are less likely to spank them.
