I'm sorry your DS had such a horrible experience Grinity! Let me just put in that my DS's experience was quite different. He was in nursery (daycare) from 10 months until he went to school, usually 10am-4pm 5 days per week. He had a wonderful time, and learned a lot, although what he learned was not academic subjects. Social skills are not just about conversation, far from it! A huge amount depends on the individual place, and as you suggest, the less time they spend on academics the better.
