    How about people parent their children?

    I believe the issue is that parents themselves are overworked from their job and have no energy to be a parent, because in our society, it is more successful to be a worker than to be a parent.

    (Sorry for turning it into a critique of capitalism, I just can’t help it these days)

      I’m with you on this one, but that’s easy to say for me. I’m in IT anyway. I just have a hard time imagining how my sister for example would set this up for her kids. That doesn’t mean I am for all of this bullshit, though.
