Dumping a kid at a day care center (kennel) is zero parenting. I know
people who dump their pets off to be boarded at a kennel several times
a year for weeks at a time, they shouldn't have pets, often their pets
are cared for better at kennels. My cats have never been boarded, not
even once... they get nervous when they see me put my shoes on, and
I've only gone shopping for an hour or less. When I'm mowing they go
from window to window making sure I'm not leaving... I come in about
once an hour to make sure they're okay. These days an awful lot of
people should never have children, and the most inept parents seem to
have the most children/the most feral children.
