Maybe you think that because the only dense urban living options available to you are the car hellscapes?
I've been raised in Warsaw (a dense capital of Poland). I've had good schools within walking distance. I've had access to quiet green spaces within walking and biking distance (they weren't paved over for parking lots). I've had lots of places to hang out with my friends, who lived nearby, or whom I could reach myself via frequent, reliable, and affordable public transport.
And Warsaw wasn't a particularly utopian city. Just built with decent public transport and without NIMBY zoning policies.

- pornel 4y agoI'm just giving a counter example that dense cities can be appealing for raising a family, and even an unexceptional city like Warsaw can manage it with the right priorities. The fact that something exists doesn't mean it's the only and forced option.
