I'm not sure what you mean by "contrived." It was the entire plot of the movie.
It's like saying that whole search for ancient artifacts crap was contrived in Raiders of the Lost Ark.
The daycare situation is what the movies was ABOUT (plotwise). You may not have liked it, but all screenplays are contrived in this way.
So, if you were trying to construct a paradise-turned-sour, prison-break movie with a cast of TOYS, where exactly would you set it?
