The world is lead forward by idealism but driven forward by pragmatism - unfortunately its 10% idealism and 90% pragmatism.
Pragmatically the adults have all the power and 90% of them will use that power to look after Number One - themselves.
(I thought St Ignatius said '"Give me a child until he is seven and I will give you the man"....')

Love this video and enjoyed reading all comments and opinions. Reminds me of why I loved being a teacher in the first place, although it can be frustrating when u get a child that u know is suffering and u try to help them feel confident and happy only to have it all unravelled when they go home makes u wanna scream.... WTF????!!!!

That's just heart breaking...."I dont know when my dad's coming home,but im hungry and miss him". All of those kids deserve a good life, and education....:( sad................

My professor shared this video with me, just heart stopping. If this video doesn't make you want to advocate for children, then nothing will.

Beautifully done. A great video that gets the message across. KUDOS!

@kodojr If that is how you feel about Early Childhood Education, then you are going to the wrong facilities. I have worked in many of them and there is very little, if any down time....

was so accurate as it related to the child care, not all, but your public money is paying for kids to be strapped in to do nothing

so true, thank you for making this video

Amazing Video!
Early education programs do not supplant parents, but support them as their childs first and most important teacher. The sad reality is that many low-income parents grew up in poverty and may not have the tools to support their childs education. Evidence-based programs coach low-income parents on how to best support their childs education at school and at home starting before the child is born. Only by supporting the family can we narrow the achievement gap and break the cycle of poverty.
