And then people are like… Parents need to parent their kids… for every kid related problem or issue, but look at how hard it is to find any time to do anything! It’s so hard… Keeping up with all the kids admin, school homework, developing bodies, relationships, future planning… And then having to learn about every new platform and emoji and movie so you know if it’s appropriate and how to handle it… It’s impossible! Parents need to parent their kids is such a cop out for a society.
I feel like you’re mad at the wrong side. Parents do need to parent their kids but obviously they need to be given time to do so. I don’t feel it’s a cop out I think it’s a muti-step solution.
Time & resources would be good but I also think we as a society shouldn’t leave it all up to 2 random individuals who happened to have a child to ensure the healthy survival of humanity. You know what I mean? We all live together here, noone is an island, noone can do it all.
Yes! If society wants any firefighters, teachers, doctors, artists, whatever 30-50 years from now, parents and children of today need better community support, mental health resources, and better free education
I think they mean it’s a cop out for people to say “parents need to parent” as a solution. The solution is “society needs to provide more support to parents.” Parenting your kids was a lot more possible when one income covered the fiscal needs of the household.

This is it. Parent your kids is a cop out statement.
Don’t have kids if you can’t raise them well. Also, less slaves to feed into the machine.
That’s a cop out.
A lot harder to agree with this statement when the abortion laws have regressed so much so recently.
