    I think the narrative is now that “parenting is hard” and you can’t expect parents to do it right by themselves. Parenting used to be easy so parents didn’t need any help but now it’s just too difficult and government needs to help.

      Ahh ok, so that means they’re for parental leave, and free daycare/preschool, right?

      And surely they’ll do something to lower the maternal and infant mortality rates, right?

      And they’ll definitely make sure that we’re teaching proper sex education, and making contraceptives free and widely available in order to lower the rate of unwanted pregnancies, right?

      Right??
