"Your Child Care Conundrum is an Anti-Communist Plot"

Nothing is free, and when you start depending on the government, you start losing freedom--you become dependant and needy and all of a sudden you have less and less say.

"Today, we are pleased to announce Power to the Profession, a two-year collaborative initiative to establish professional guidelines for early childhood educators across all states and settings."

"As more attention and funding is directed towards early childhood education, early educators must elevate the profession to ensure current and future resources deliver the best outcomes for children."

"To maintain and build investments in early childhood education, the public and policymakers need to understand what they are paying for and why. In order to promote this understanding, we need to come together to establish a unified framework for required competencies, qualifications and compensation."

"The collaboration will also include national stakeholder organizations with systems-level influence on the profession"

Sold to us by promising better pay, while parents are still lamenting our tuition rates.
