to love are forged during the first
tw o years of life. On th is point
there is a consensus am ong scien­
tis ts fro m a w id e range of
disciplines.
“ W e are living in tim es,” Pro­
fessor Fraiberg continues, "w hen
there are voices w hich denigrate
the hum an fam ily and even cry for
its disso lu tio n or its recom posi­
tion. I cannot identify the voices of
infant p sycholog ists am ong th e m ”
(Every Child's Birthright: In Defense
of Mothering).
It’s unnerving to visualize what
final e ffe ct the em otional near
abandonm ent of our children w ill
have upon our society.
Too long has w om en’s value as
th e p r im a r y n u r tu r e r s a n d
educators of their children been
downgraded. W om en w ho choose
to stay hom e w ith their children
should never again feel they have
to apologize for their occupation.
My question to those consider­
ing day care from alm ost day once
is, should you consider having
children? If your career is at such a
critic a l stage that you can’t make
the sacrifice of a few years to give
the care every hum an being needs
fo r em otional stability, perhaps
you shouldn’t bring children into
the w orld at this tim e.
At som e point or other, careers
can be interrupted, w ith little or no
repercussions. The nurturing and
care o f your m ost personal pre­
cio u s product, your infant child,
cannot.
O f course, m othering takes
sacrifice. For the first few m onths,
it’s an around-the-clock, physical
job for w hich you'll get little
praise. But what rewards!
The intense nuturing of another
human being defined as m other­
ing builds a relationship like no
other. You can experience this
k in d o f d e ep, in te rp e rs o n a l
closeness in no other way. Do you
want to m iss that?
YOUR CHILD DESERVES THE BEST
For those w ith older children,
depending on the fam ily c ir­
cum stances and ch ild re n ’s ages, it
may not always be as harm ful for
m others to work. But those o f you
w ith very young preschool babies
and toddlers feeling the pressure
The Soviet U nion has provided
in s titu tio n a liz e d c h ild care for
years, but use of these services
has dw idled. M any parents de­
pend on friends and relatives to
care fo r children under 3, the age
Soviet preschoolers usually attend
kindergarten.
S oviet m o th e rs receive fu ll
salary fo r 1-1/2 or tw o years and 50
to 75 percent salary for the third
year, and s till have a guaranteed
place at th e ir old work.
In Britain, w om en receive 18
w eeks m aternity leave from their
em ployers. For those w ho have
w orked fo r more then tw o years,
pay fo r the first six w eeks is 90
percent o f salary, then about 33
pounds a week for the next 12
weeks.
In the late 1970’s, France in-
s titu te d supplem ental allow ances
called the com plem ent fam ilial.
These are childcare allow ances
given to fam ilies of lim ited re­
sources having at least one child
under 3 years old or three children,
w hether the m other w orks or not.
In France, the w orking m other is
given 16 w eeks’ m aternity leave,
six weeks before and 10 weeks
after the birth. She is paid 90 per­
ce n t of her normal wages by social
security during th is tim e. French
children from 2 to 6 years of age
may attend preschool classes.
And all th is has been made nec­
essary by the grow ing num ber of
tw o-incom e fam ilies in our overex­
tended debt-ridden w orld!
THE DEVELOPMENT OF LOVE
Even m ore sobering, studies are
revealing that a c h ild 's ab ility to
form a lasting attachm ent to
a n o th e r h u m a n b e in g — h is
c a p a c ity to love — is learned
before age 3. And that th is ability
to form a lasting m utual attach­
m ent is inexorably tied in w ith the
form ulation of the c h ild ’s co n ­
science. In other words, no human
a tta c h m e n t equals no proper
sense of c o n s c ie n c e ...
From studies over the last 20 to
30 years in fa n t p s y c h o lo g is t

“ There’s no one answer to the
ch ild care problem , no course
th a t’s right for every fam ily. If a
m other absolutely m ust work,
then she woes her child the best
care possible. If she does have a
choice, then she ow es it to herself,
as w ell as to the child, to take tw o
or three years fo r the m ost im por­
tant w ork she may ever do, nurtur­
ing a new life.” (The Child Care

to m ake a decision you may regret,
q u it fe e lin g in fe r io r — y o u ’re
indispensable!
In trial and adversity
Let not your faith grow dim,
But say a fervent prayer to God
And keep your trust in Him
Let hope not wither on the wire
Of sorrow and despair,
Remember God knows everything
And He is everywhere
However dark the day may seem
Or frightening the night.
All troubles fade and disappear
And life turns out all right
Provided you maintain your faith
And do not yield to tear
The while you pray for courage with
A heart that is sincere
Resign yourself most humbly now
To do God's holy will
And He will surely bless you and
Your least request fulfill
