Additionally, government supplemented/paid for day care is the only way to pay the teachers fairly. Given places often aim for 4 students:1 teacher, you already have a hard cap of 4*monthly fees for salary for that one teacher. I pay 1.2k/ month, so a teacher can get a max of 4.8k/month if EVERYTHING went to them, which we all know it doesn't due to taxes, administrative staff, utilities, facility fees, etc.
However, if they raise fees, they price people out of a much-needed service at a time when folks typically haven't reached their max earning potential yet.
And folks wonder why parents these days are so old. Earning potential to afford daycare in the first place.
Idk, it seems like US doesn't even have the basic shit going on, any of that is a good news.
