These programs tend to vary wildly in quality, which is why you run into situations where you have to wait list your child for over a year to get into a program. While it is true that school enables both parents to work, I don't think it is fair to classify them as warehouses. As a parent of two children under three, with a grand mother who loves to be involved, it is definitely wonderful. However, the boundaries can start to blur when you rely too much on family. The daycare relationship is more of a business relationship and much easier to deal with. You can also be assured that your children won't be eating ice cream every day.
