The Association for Childhood Education International's website has a section called Childhood Explorer. This a publication on the site that details childhood experiences across the globe. One story in particular seemed to tie in with viewing children as investments. This story was about a young boy and his sister who created a nonprofit organization, One More Generation (OMG), to show other youth that they, too, can make a difference in the world. Reading this article showed me the importance of investing in children because they, then, invest in other people and other things; the investments become exponential, and the benefits possibly limitless.
The fact that ACEI is affiliated with China, Hong Kong, Russia, and Taiwan made me realize that my small-mindedness should be deleted. I appreciate that this organization is making a worldwide difference to advocate for children's education.
I did not find any information that added to my understanding of how economists, politicians, and scientists support the early childhood field.

I agree with you it is important to invest in our children. Education is the key to our children's success.
