I don't know, I feel like this is more of a response to how controlled everything is. We've had a lot of breakthroughs with decriminalization of drug use and progress on race, gender, and sexuality issues in tge last decade. But we have never controlled, or historically cared at all about children. There were so many homeless kids in New York like 60-80 years ago they would just throw them on adoption trains to travel the country and try to get adopted, by force, even if they had a family.
Overall I think a lot of people who were raised in abusive homes think we could check I'm on families more. But historically this was a job for the church, not that they did a good job...
