I work in the behavioral Health Field and there talking about cutting funds. The people who are SMI can not afford for funding to be cut. If they cut funding there will be alot of people with there medication and the services they need. I bet within a week time the crime rate will be up. I think that they need to figure out somethin better than cutting Day care and Behavioral

Jan Brewer is ticked off because she didn't get her 1% tax hike on the ballot so instead of cutting frivolous gov't spending she's hitting children, health, schools, etc to force us into upping sales tax. Shame on you Jan!!!!! No vote from me ever.

Just change the daycare into a church or an "indoor playground". It will be tied up in court for years.

One more thing I didn't add. This response is for azhound. Parents get divorced and the only option is daycare. Maybe you should be a little more open-minded.

Parents put them in daycare and preschool so they can keep their jobs. Kids will go to public school when they reach 5. Some off you don't understand and should zip it. These increases are ridiculous.

Folks shouldn't have children if they are just going to dump them off at daycare. These parents have no business complaining about fee increases. If they don't like it, then they should care for their kids themselves.

Hahahaha, good. This is the "change" that you wanted.

hey brewer you idiot, i hope you decide not to run for governor, you haven't got my vote, this raise is raping the parents as well as the kids. . . take the freaking money from prisoners, they do not need tvs, cable. . . weight rooms, take the money seized from drug seizures, there have been a lot lately, hell sell the weed to california for their "medical" shops, get freaking creative. . .

I have one child in daycare right now and pay $800 a month...that's a lot of money. Nowadays it's hard to work and it's hard not to work. I love having her at the daycare but I can't afford to pay much more. It's not that the politicians aren't human, it's just that they have always had the luxury of having stay at home wives or nanny's or whatever. They have never had to use the daycare system.
