Senator Vanessa Kaiser of Chile claimed a recently approved daycare bill would allow the state to remove children from their parents between the ages of zero and two. However, the fact-checking organization Fast Check has determined this claim to be false. After reviewing the bill and consulting with the Chilean Senate presidency, Fast Check found no provision requiring parents to enroll their children in daycare. Instead, the legislation guarantees the right to access universal daycare services, but does not mandate participation. The bill aims to provide access, not to enforce removal of children from parental care. This correction clarifies that the Chilean law supports families, rather than undermining parental rights as initially alleged.
