If a parent creates a child, and then says "raising this child responsibly is too hard...I need the government to help me," isn't that contrary to personal responsibility?

I don't think anyone here is saying "raising this child responsibly is too hard..."

I think they're saying "If that pervert in the dirty rain coat tries to come near my child, I'll kill him."

Can you hear us now?

I thought this thread was about a community debate over a book in a library, not dirty men trying to approach your child.

I'm pretty sure we're all in agreement that you can keep your kids away from suspicious characters.
