"In the study, child care was defined as care by anyone other than the child's mother who was regularly scheduled for at least 10 hours per week." (from an MSNBC article on a study of day care)
So if I stayed at home full time to take care of Nathan, that would count as him being in day care.

1. Few effects of poor day care last past age 11 (Reuters)
2. Study links child care to poor behavior (AP)
So if you stay home with Nathan, you could make him suffer, but only till he's 11.
