I would blame it more on the parents’ warehousing of children to the care of strangers, starting in infancy, instead of staying home to take care of them themselves.
I have watched this since the 1960s when I started my family. I sensed that the feminist movement was going to have some very serious negative consequences on children.
Certainly not all, but a good majority of them are harmed by constantly changing caregivers, overcrowded day care facilities, and a lack of parental guidance, structure, discipline, and time spent listening, discussing, following through, and teaching responsibility.
We are reaping the consequences, and these are destroying our morals, our values, our legal system, our institutions, and our nation.
