Is Day Care Bad For Your Brain?

The Winnepeg Sun reports:

This is your brain. This is your brain on -- day care? While day-care activists insist that children thrive in day care, a new book challenges the notion that kids require formal child care.

Raising Babies -- Should Under 3s Go to Nursery? is the latest offering from Australian psychologist Steve Biddulph. He argues that day care is damaging to babies' brain chemistry.

Before you discount Biddulph in an attempt to ease your own guilty conscience, it should be noted that his contention is in line with leading academic work gathered in Canada, the U.S. and England.

Neurobiological research indicates that brain development in children under the age of two is best served with one-on-one care, claims Biddulph.

Kind of politically incorrect to even mention this.
