Minding The Children

Daniel talks to Geraldine Youcha, author of "Minding the Children: Childcare in America form Colonial Times to the Present." She says that options we discuss for childcare today, such as federally funded daycare for children of working mothers and orphanages, have been tried in the past and that policymakers should look to history to examine the pros and cons of different childcare solutions.
