题目内容

I would like to encourage parents, and anyone reading this column to express your special thanks to the men and women who share the care giving of your children. Write your children's teachers a little note to tell them how important they are... it will make their day.

Actually they need far more than thanks. They need pay that is equitable (reasonable)to the important work they do. In our country, we pay nearly the same salaries to the attendants who park and watch our cars as we do to trained people who care for our children.

When you give your car to the attendant, you want it kept in a safe place and you want to get it back without a scratch (划痕). When you give your child to a preschool teacher or caregiver, they do much more.

Quality childcare is physically and emotionally demanding. Children are active, vulnerable (be easily harmed), and eager to learn, and they also need individualized, loving attention. Caregivers teach health, safety, personal hygiene (卫生); they teach values and self-discipline. They lay the foundations for learning reading, science, and math. They teach cooperation and the work ethic (道德规范).

Caregivers in quality child -care homes and centers do everything possible for children, and they keep on doing it until they burn out, or can no longer afford to keep it up. They have families too. We lose many of our best early childhood teachers because so many of them have no health benefits.

Fair wages and basic health benefits will keep the good people in the field that our children need. Please write your state and federal representatives (参、众议院议员)to urge their support of young children, their education and their quality care.
