If that's not what you meant, please explain??
I make my living as a writer. Words are my tools. The key word in your reply is "our." In newspeak, the first person plural is a euphemism for The State. "We" must do the right thing by "our" children means, if you are a statist, send in the JBTs. Nobody's abusing the Branch Davidian children anymore, are they? Or Elian Gonzales? QED.
The problem is the atrophying of familial bonds, obligations, and priveleges. The statist cure is worse than the disease, and, in fact, is a major contributing factor to the disease.
My children are not "our" children. They are my joy, my primary project in life for the glory of God, my responsibility. It takes a family to raise a child. My duty towards my neighbor is to convince him of the sheer horror, the sickening irresponsability, the scalding shame of rendering unto caesar that which is God's -- the precious children entrusted to our care.
Something I try to do on an ongoing basis is pursuade all those I can of how much fun home schooling is! Of how much delight, wonder, and sense of destiny go into purposeful family living.
With this in mind, we publish a regular family newsletter. I also dedicated an MS thesis to laying to rest the myth of "socialization." You might enjoy it -- it's posted here.
