That’s exactly the purpose. Cradle to grave government control is the ultimate goal of the left.

Free babysitting service...meals included.

I remember when there was outrage when Russia was doing this.....maybe 20 or 30 years ago.

I started kindergarten at age 5, in 1957 - still remember the first day where we had to spell our names by gluing alphabet noodles to construction paper. I broke a letter and got scared for a minute.
I don't think preschool for 3 year olds was around yet.

As I've been saying over and over, this moron's actual true constituency is the ghetto thug and the illegal alien. The regular NYC taxpayers are merely the cash cows to pay for his redistribution of wealth schemes.

He is selling off every square inch of still open space of NYC to his developer campaign contributor masters. He is throwing away untold millions of taxpayer monies on illegal aliens, giving them free housing, free medical care, free education (displacing kids who should rightfully be taking those seats), free legal aid to help defend them AGAINST the laws they have broken, etc. Meanwhile, NYC taxpayer taxes continue to rise to pay for this crap.

The NYC Council, headed by Miss Ugly Puerto Rican Mark-Viverito, devotes an inordinate amount of their time scheming how to send NYC tax money to Puerto Rico, who has NO call on those monies, how to give millions of NYC tax money to illegal aliens, and how to relieve the ghetto dwellers (and one must pause to think of WHY they are still living in the ghetto, despite free education opportunities and all kinds of government training programs, etc.) of yet another responsibility---raising their mostly illegitimate offspring.

So let's extend the school system down to 3 year olds, so their progenitors (can hardly call them "parents", can we?) can be free to spend more of their days doing drugs, smoking, and hanging around to make yet more welfare dependents.

The indoctrination these tots will have is bad enough.

What's even worse is that all-day pre-school is terrible for children, psychologically.

Even at the ripe old age of 5, children are adversely affected by full-day kindergarten.

The truth that feminists hate (but it is still the truth) is this:
To grow up psychologically healthy, small children need to be home with their parents, or with someone else who truly loves them (like a grandparent). A so-called caregiver –such as a nanny or babysitter or daycare worker– who likely will not stay with the child for years, doesn't cut it.

I'm convinced the main reason we have so many drug-addicted young people is that most of them were dumped in day-care when they were too young. Sadly, day-care culture has became the norm for American children over the last several decades. It has done enormous damage to our future.

First they will “offer” preschool for 3 year olds- then later they will require it. Get them indoctrinated so early that there’s no chance of them growing up normal.

Pick them up in the maternity ward and indoctrinate them until the day they cast their first vote for a leftist Dem.

.... with further plans to lower the age to 2 years old, then 1 years old, then 0-11 months.

Within 3 years after that, it will be mandatory.

Just like the old Soviet Union.

It’s a people farm. A collective. Like the Nazis.
