Tbf, this post is a shower thought comparing governments to parents. Governments aren’t individuals.

Admittedly you have a point since parents are individuals in most of the US where I am from. That hasn’t been true historically, nor does it need to continue just because we have done it that way for a few generations. Historically parents are an entire community of adults raising the children as a group, which does map onto what a government is supposed to be fairly accurately.
