Position of the modifier

Hi

I have a question about this sentence.

By the time this book was published in 2019, Danny had already made it clear, with his concern for the mental health problems among youngsters, that children should be understood more than they are loved.

I think the modifier could be placed after 'Danny'.

Please give your views.
