'Sending children to day care for large amounts of their youth has shown to be highly detrimental to their development'

What are your sources for this claim?

In Sweden 85% of 2 year olds are in day care enabling mothers to work. This has been the case for decades.

If what you claim is true the entire country of Sweden should show adverse affects. It simply does not.

The Netherlands is pretty close to that from what I've seen. Most children some of the children here go to day-care from 4 months old on so mothers can get back to work.
