Besides, if everyone's children were everyone else's responsibility, then *I* could smack the dirty little mouth off of the neighbor's kid.
Another antiquated societal construct being redefined. This has been in process for years. Give it 10-20 years and it quite possibly will be a given that, of course you are simply a co-parent.
If one has to pay for somebody else's kid and they belong to the community, does that mean everybody has a part in handing that kid an ass whoopin?
If it were possible to defy gravity and crap up someone's nostrils, I would hope it would happen to her.
I was with you until you inferred that children do chores in the USA.This is the subversive promotion for the public adoption of Agenda 21 which follows the ideology of "a new vision of the child. Children are neither the property of their parents nor are they helpless objects of charity. They are human beings and are the subject of their own rights. The Convention offers a vision of the child as an individual and as a member of a family and community, with rights and responsibilities appropriate to his or her age and stage of development."
The UN has interpreted this to mean that the "rights" of a child over-ride the responsibilities of that child's parents and the child will be better suited to a community form of education and rearing.
At first blush, this doesn't sound so bad until you realize that in countries where this has become legal precedent, children can sue parents for doing chores or worse, parents can lose all "rights" to raising their own child if the government believes their method or ideologies in child rearing do not meet the UN standard of Agenda 21.
Your child may no longer be your own under this.

With all the people currently suckling from the government's teat, I believe the motherland would be a more appropriate name.So if the state owns our children, do we call it the Fatherland?
