I don't see anything wrong with sending a child to preschool or a nursery school, but, I think it's sad if you have to send them younger than say...maybe...three or so.
I think it's a good thing to send them to things like that because the child can get used of being around other children and that's also a good way to prepare them for regular school (Kindergarten, etc.) It also helps to develop their social skills, I feel.
Of course I can only speak for myself here, but I really liked going to Nursery School and having other kids to play with. There was no education involved back then (not like how it is now), but it was mostly just a place to play and all that. My mother put me in that nursery school because it got to the point that no one could be around to watch me at that time during the day. My grandmother wasn't living with us yet, and my father was now in-between jobs and had to go on interviews and stuff like that. The Nursery School was right across the street from the office building my mother worked in. It was like a five-minute walk for her to come and see me.
Anyway, aside from my first day (first few minutes, rather, lol), I never had a problem with it and looked forward to it everyday, especially since I was an only-child.
