This paper talks about the demographic measure of the former mayor of the city of Zagreb, Milan Bandić, called parent-educator. The proposed measure can be requested on their own initiative by parents who have three or more children and are unemployed. The adopted measure tends to reduce the number of children enrolled in kindergartens in the city of Zagreb and to provide opportunities for parents to find employment or receive financial assistance. Also, parents are motivated to have more children what affects the positive demographic picture. However, in addition to the positive factors, there are also the negative ones. The purpose of this paper is to point out and point out certain shortcomings of the adopted measure, which directly affect the overall development of children in families in which parents use the status of parents of educators. By taking on the status of educator's parents, children do not receive the same opportunities for upbringing and education as their peers. The elements that will be included in this work are focused on: support for parents, educators, violation of children 's rights, lack of educational services for children of parents and others. The lack of support for parents and educators can be detected as an element that significantly affects the overall implementation of the demographic measure, ensuring the quality of life and growth of children in such families. The paper presents legal documents that regulate the rights of children and the benefits of early and preschool education. In addition to domestic legislation, the paper provides an overview of the strategies by which countries such as Switzerland, Austria and Poland have regulated the decision of parents to educate their children at home, also called home schooling. In addition to legal regulations, research dealing with the importance of educational programs is also important. It is research that has significantly contributed to the writing of the paper because it highlights the shortcomings in the overall development of the child that can arise from the denial of stay in institutions for early and preschool education. In addition to the education segment, the paper emphasizes social status, poverty and neglect as an aggravating factor in the growth of children whose parents use the status of parent-educator. The paper also mentions the assignment of the title of educator to parents and educators, which questions the role of educators and their work in educational institutions.
