Yes, like an orphanage. I understand that some people may like raising children, but that ignores the fact that most people don’t receive education how to do that properly. | ||||||||

As bad as that sometimes is, have you heard the stories of people who grew up in orphanages? In general it was worse than having below-average parents… That’s a big part of why a lot of the world has moved from institutional care to foster systems. | ||||||||

>that most people don’t receive education how to do that properly. Incentives matter far more than education; parents have a built-in biological incentive to care for their children, so on average they put in more effort, that's why children at orphanages do so poorly, and homeschooled children do better on standardised testing than public schooled children. | ||||||||

I suppose in this facility they would have special access to the knowledge and practice of how to raise a child | ||||||||

Fortunately there are still some things that are off-limits for the state. | ||||||||
