This logic could be applied to k-12 education, which would be rather expensive if not government-subsidized. Pre-school in particular benefits both the children who receive it and the parents who are able to work. A lack of affordable childcare disproportionally falls on women as well, which is something worth tackling. The other issue not even mentioned here is that childcare and pre-school are expensive but they don't pay well. A larger role from the government would pay these people more and provide more stability for pre-school teachers and children alike.

No, because most parents aren't good at teach their kids basic knowledge. > Pre-school in particular benefits both the children? Disagree, it's a virus-fest and a herdish, artificial beginning in life. People who are lucky enough to grow their kids in rural/family/small town settings have it much better. > A lack of affordable childcare disproportionally falls on women agreed, but that can easily be worked on
