This period, 1 to 5 is when the neural networking is being designed.

Maybe (although a lot happens before and after that). And you posted evidence that talking to babies is important, and that its not a good idea to always use babytalk. None of that is about preschool.

I have the science I just posted.

And it makes perfect sense.

Maybe it makes sense but it doesn't address the point that there seems to be no solid evidence that preschool produces better long term results, with those that attend showing higher cognitive ability or success 5, 10, or 15 years later. If your really all about science you would recognize that while the benefit is not disproven, its far from proven, and in fact that the current evidence (which as always in science is subject to later revision) suggest that long term measurable benefit is at best minor.

But the problem is that conflicts with your political and personal views so you just pretend that the scientific evidence supports you.
