View submission: Good Parenting - can it be incentivized ?
I've heard that government assistance in some countries is based on performance in school before college.
Maternal and paternal leave would need to be extended and fully paid and childcare would need to be government regulated.
Universal healthcare would also be a must to ensure a parent had nothing to worry about as far as being able to afford medical bills.
Minimum wage and liveable wage would have to be one and the same from area to area.
Parental education classes would need to be mandatory and free as well as passing a financial and mental stability test.
Unfortunately a lot of the things that would be needed to incentivise "good parenting" could also be seen of eugenics of minorities.
I don't think anyone wants to be anything less than a good parent but there's only so much a human can take. Of course once you have a child, your life belongs to them but with the pressure of that and needing to constantly work, I don't see how anyone is up to the task of child-rearing.
There's nothing here!
