It's unfortunate that the debate in our country has pitted the needs of working families against the needs of stay-at-home families. It's an unfortunate state that our leaders would allow the needs of children to be pitted against each other, the needs of families to be pitted against each other. What families are saying they need is a national child care program.
We also need to support families who stay at home. I think we are a wealthy nation and can afford to do both.
