      I'm skeptical of the assumption that random strangers and bureaucrats are any more likely to know what's right and good for my future child than I am unless I become an abusive scumbag unable to adequately provide for them.

      Pretty weird that you bestow some sort of inherent trust on others based solely on their lack of blood relation to a child that you don't afford parents. Why do you think Jimmy down the street knows what's better for my child than I?

      No, nobody argued that the problem with people being parents is the blood relation, and that therefore you could solve the problem by randomly reassigning children from their blood parents to other parents It's the institution of "parents" that's the problem

      So it's like I said in my other reply; you share similar ideals of child-rearing with the early Soviets?

      I don't have a ready policy solution to hand but I am extremely suspicious of anyone who claims some sort of natural moral right to power over another human being and would push incrementally for any policy solutions in our society that erode such rights

      I'd fight that push tooth and nail. I'm not in favour of a society in which children are all effective wards of the state raised in a context in which their figures of authority hold only extremely tenuous power over them. Children are individuals, but they're not independent.

      Yeah so we're implacable enemies on this issue, I think we already knew that

      I think if you knew how fucking common it was in the community I came from for kids to have their dads beat the shit out of them you might feel differently, but hey, maybe not -- those dads all thought they were good parents too I don't actually care

      You realize that most parents aren't emotionally or physically abusive right? I'm not sure the exact context of where and how you grew up but your anecdotal experience clearly shapes the way you see this issue the same as mine does for me.

      I do not "realize" this, and I think if we were fully honest about the definition of abuse, especially emotional abuse, you'd quite likely get a simple majority of abusive parents looking at the population as a whole

          But even that isn't necessary for my argument You don't have to be an abusive parent to be a BAD parent

          Especially in times/places where corporal punishment is common. In a "spare the rod, spoil the child" culture everyone is an abusive parent
