To determine the correct answer among the given options, we need to evaluate each option and choose the one that best explains why voters have been historically unwilling to underwrite a school-age child care system.

Option A suggests that recently immigrated families had more extended support and could take care of their children themselves. This explanation does not directly address why voters have been unwilling to underwrite a school-age child care system, so we can eliminate option A.

Option B suggests that voters believed that child care was the responsibility of families. This option provides a potential explanation for voters' unwillingness to underwrite a school-age child care system. It suggests that voters expected parents to take responsibility for child care rather than relying on the government or public funding.

Option C suggests that voters weren't voting because they didn't have the time. While this statement might be a contributing factor to voters' unwillingness to support a child care system, it does not directly address the reason behind the reluctance.

Option D suggests that two parents staying at home seemed to be a much better idea. This option implies that voters preferred the traditional model of one parent staying at home to take care of children, rather than supporting a school-age child care system. This belief might influence voters' unwillingness to underwrite such a system.

Considering the options, the best answer that directly explains why voters have been historically unwilling to underwrite a school-age child care system is option B. Voters believed that child care was the responsibility of families, and thus, they were not inclined to support a government-funded system.
