@dailymail: The Trump administration is considering a new childcare subsidy that would help some married couples afford to have one parent stay home to care for their children. Under the proposed plan, one spouse would need to work at least 35 hours a week, while the other stays home - but single parents and unmarried couples would not qualify. The money would come from an existing federal childcare fund that already helps lower- and middle-income families cover the cost of care, rather than creating an entirely new program. Supporters say the proposal could give parents more choice, while critics warn it could leave single working parents with less support and take funding away from traditional childcare providers. #childcare #trump #usa #news #family
