Oh my gosh. This happens every time. Someone makes a comment like this, and the other side goes waaaaay to the extreme and starts talking about things that nobody is suggesting.
Yes, if a child is being abused, like real abuse, not the lefty definition of abuse, then yes, someone should go to the authorities, but that is not what we are taking about here, and apparently that’s not what mrs perry was talking about either. This goes back to the “it takes a village” argument, that “society” is responsible for raising kids.
You know that the arguments about kids “belonging” to the parents are not talking about the things you just mentioned, so why even bring them up. When they say a child belongs to a parent, they mean that while that child is being raised, they are to mind their parents, do what they say, learn from them, and the parents are responsible for them.
So, if the argument is that the community as a whole should have some say in how your child is raised and that other parents can have some sort of “partnership” in raising a child, or that the community should be able to directly influence someone else’s kids….then no..that is wrong.
