Reply #24: Normally I would oppose the interjection of government into anything... [View All]

as intimate as childrearing, for the same reason I oppose the intrusion of government into the bedroom, the kitchen, the garden and the family gunsafe. But the (corporate-engineered) destruction of our extended families, and the further fragmentation of our nuclear families (by the same forces for precisely the same divisive motives) has created such an abyss of child-raising ignorance, I see no reasonable alternative: upon determination of viable pregnancy and choice to retain the fetus, mandatory parenting classes for both mother and father (or mate), mandatory paid leave time from work to attend. And basic introduction to such training as a part of all high school health classes.
