I haven't looked into it but I assume it's one of those situations where a missing axiom means a very weird bullet begs to be bitten Like, the state can intervene when a parent is abusive, ergo it must actually be the state that allocates children to parents

I make a point of sometimes talking about the unspoken foundations of law- law is violence, etc.- in part to ward off this kind of absolutely terminal administrative-brain thinking. Productive discussions of power always have a faint whiff of gunsmoke in the air.

I just want to say thank you to our benevolent rulers for granting me the privilege of keeping my children. I promise to follow all 453 state mandated operating procedures forever and always. Love, Your loyal citizen

Believing that "the State confers ... parenthood" and not that the State recognizes and supports the natural biological institution of parenthood evidences Communist thinking, with the State as God. Stop taxpayer funding of Harvard NOW.
