Imagine you take half of the single mothers living on social assistance and their children go to child care. They get the benefit of all that happens every day in day care, and all of the literature is now clear that it's very beneficial. At the same time, you get the mother going to work. They grow up with an example of someone who goes to work every day. They get out of that kind of poverty trap.
