Just give the parents the tools to do this(which there already are) rather than taking everyone’s privacy away and monitoring them all the time but sadly that seems to be the point. Orwell would be horrified.

This is the Christian way: the system isn’t the problem, you are the problem. Addicted to drugs? Weak willed! Fat? Weak willed! Sick? God’s plan, deal with it! Uneducated? WeAkWiLlEd!
