Funny how God works out these issues, though. A parent SHOULD be wanting to spiritually nourish his or her child, but sometimes the parent has absolutely cockamamie ideas of how to do it. Believe me — I’ve been there, done that, and in retrospect glad that I didn’t get embroiled even worse than I was in these cockamamie ideas which raised themselves up against the knowledge of God.
So being aloof from the child in these circumstances might be better for the child’s ultimate spiritual progress towards God who is perfect.
And having your child “raised” by some nameless and faceless corporate “child care provider” is preferable? Better to get your own house in order and care for your own child rather than pass them off as they are crying and reaching for you not to abandon them.
