>> Why are you always fighting against the scientific evidence.

“A 2005 analysis by researchers at Stanford University and the University of California, Berkeley, found that kindergartners with 15 or more hours of preschool every week were less motivated and more aggressive in class. Likewise, Canada’s C.D. Howe Institute found a higher incidence of anxiety, hyperactivity and poor social skills among kids in Quebec after universal preschool.”

"The authors acknowledge that scientific understanding of the long-term effects of preschool is “very much in its infancy. But one inescapable conclusion from the existing research is that it is not for everyone. Kids with loving and attentive parents—the vast majority—might well be better off spending more time at home than away in their formative years."

Liberals only like science when it supports their political positions. Most libtards reject science on a number of issues including, but not limited to, fracking, when life begins, genetically modified foods, alternative energy limitations, adult stem cells, scientific research on education, sexuality, capitalism, health and race, DDT, BPA, Alar, etc. Plain science easily disputes the hysterical liberal viewpoint of each.
