Peter Duval: Provide a universal parent stipend

I have another idea that could be implemented immediately: a universal parent stipend. Regardless of how much childcare is involved, parents have the greatest contact with children, the greatest influence in their lives, and the greatest interest in their success. If we asked infants whether they would like to spend more time with parents or at a childcare center, what would they choose? Providing more support to parents (money, education, and services) seems like a no-brainer.
