Right, so sucks to be a kid born to the wrong parents? No second chances there! Get unlucky in the who-you-are-born-to game and messed up for life, no possibility of outside intervention!
You falsely assume that the kid can't grow up and overcome his messed-up childhood!

Quote:
This is such a weird strain of American libertarianism, this concept that parents deserve complete control over their children.
They do.

Quote:
Bullshit! Every child deserves a good upbringing.
Why?

Quote:
And if the parents are the barrier to that good upbringing, I say, my concern is for the children. Get the bad parents out of the picture as much as possible.
Get the bad leftists and socialists that are trying to take over out of America! The children are the offspring of the parents and how they are raised is the responsibility of the parents (with influence from the extended family). It is not the government's responsibility.
