ok - so I think we actually agree mostly. The system I grew up in had daycare available at the school, starting around 8am and going to 6pm. School itself only went from 9am to 3.30pm - so kids who had supervision available at home, or friends houses, etc, only had to be there at those hours. It sounds like you'd agree that system would meet parents needs without putting excessive restrictions on families that didn't need the care?
