Childcare in Ireland
is a political priority right now. With the high employment and the increase
in families with both parents working - there is a currently a shortage
of proper childcare facilities in Ireland. In 2006 a "childcare allowance" was awarded for every child under 6 - of €1000 euro a year. This is payable to the Child Benefit claimant of every child under 6 - regardless of childcare arrangements. It probably won't make much of a dent in some families childcare costs - but it's a help. Even parents whose children live outside Ireland can claim this allowance. It would be great
if both parents didn't have work. It is something that is on the increase
and seems to be encouraged by governent and society in general . The idea
of being a full time housewife or househusband is sometimes treated as
being odd these days. Everyone seems to want to get out there and earn
as much as they can - while paying strangers to care for their children
during their formative years just so they can pay the mortgage on an overpriced
house or the loan on the second or third car. |
