Skip Oliva writes a fantastic piece on why the centrally planned state hates breastfeeding, co-sleeping (infant and parent), and when an untrained environment replaces state-sanctioned institutions: “The Broken Infant Fallacy.”
Ideally, if you extend the “let’s put three-year-olds in school” argument to its logical conclusion, human children would be separated from their mothers soon after birth, much like dairy farmers do with goats. This way, their diet can be strictly monitored for compliance with federal guidelines, mothers could re-enter the workforce sooner (driving down employers’ labor costs), and children would learn from the age of three months or so that they can’t exist outside the central planners’ view of “society.” And hopefully, they’ll finally do well on those standardized tests!
