Early childhood education and fostering are critical to development. The phrase “The years before five last the rest of their lives” is literally touted by the government here in literature. And that’s in the developed world.

That I truly agree with; and I’m all for people interacting with young kids in a positive manner… I just don’t see it as a valid resolution to ending poverty, unless the known systemic causes of poverty are also resolved at the same time.
