Day care swipe cards — really?

Gov. Jim Doyle is recommending that parents be required to use swipe cards to indicate when their children enter and leave day care, according to the JS.

What about the children who go to school and then go to day care? They are picked up at school by day care center vans. (A friend describes a school inundated by more than 40 vans at the end of every school day.) How will parents log those children into day care? Will they give the cards to their four-year-olds to swipe for themselves?

Doyle’s proposal appears to lack a full understanding of the day care situation in our fair city, which would not be a first for Doyle’s comprehension of Milwaukee. It is early, though, and the JS did not carry full details of the proposal so perhaps there already exists some sort of accommodation. If not, there still is time to fix glaring problems like this.

    We can get cards for daycare but not voter registration cards?
