> Maybe it has something to do with the “you are not good enough” treadmill the modern world has everyone on. I don't think so. I think it's because A new couple can't support themselves when rent=1mo typical wages. It is impossible to pair off. Parenting time is up 20-fold from the 1950s. Was a few hours wk. Now it's ceaseless, 24/7 adulting. Childhood is effectively ruined due to - eradication of free ranging area thanks to automobile and trespassing culture. - eradication of regular hours of adult-free peer time where critical social and growth skills are learned. Modern childhoods are spent in boxes w/ adults. Poor mental health follows and kids cope using devices. So adults predictably want to take that away as well.
