In modern Ireland we provide more materially for our children than any previous generation, but are children better cared for? Half the adult population are now parents with more women than even before working. A key issue for them is childcare. This book explores the childcare issue in Ireland today. Factually stark and provocative this book compels everyone to question their choices regarding childcare.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
