>The US has discovered that there's a substantial portion of the population (which for this could be 1%, 10%, 20% whatever) who is really bad at raising kids, basically. I'm a center-lefty, but America appears to be mostly right and I find it fascinating that this is just "accepted". Why does America just accept that some (a large enough number that most schools have to feed them) people cant raise their kids?

Are you going to require people get a license to procreate? Or perhaps are you saying that the government should provide a nanny to everybody that can't raise their kid?

  We already have a system where the government can send "child raising inspectors" to your house and potentially take away your children. It's dysfunctional, yes, but it exists.

  this is not the only alternative.... What I see is a cultural/community problem.

Because for a not insubstantial portion of America, they see it as their "Christian duty". I see people on Facebook who refer to their kids, unironically, as "future warriors for Christ".
