“I’m not about to hand the roll of parent over to the state.”
While we may disagree on the details of parenting, we agree totally here. I am 100% behind you. It is the parents job, whatever/however that parent chooses, Period.
We have to remember this always: it benefits the government immensely when we abdicate our role as parent.
The government gets to grow every time a parent doesn’t do their job. When it grows, it gets to demand more taxes, more of your time, more of your life.
The government gets to put its fingers in another pie every time we let it do what we should be doing.
So, for anyone who thinks that this is a good law, ask yourself this: How long before the government moves from saying “kids can’t play violent games” to “kids can’t hunt because it’s violent”.
How long before the government tells you that you can’t own a weapon if you have kids? How long before the government tells you that you can’t own the game if you have kids?
