520 _a"Elected officials love to talk about 'family values' but shy away from proposing anything big or new that would actually help parents juggle the tasks of earning a living and raising a family. The only explanation seems to be that most voters--probably even most parents--don't think that those who nurture the next generation are unfairly burdened." (WASHINGTON MONTHLY) The author opines that nurturing children is an essential form of public service, that successful parenting is "vital to a nation's survival, with the new realities created by aging and the deepening demand for human capital formation" and that "a society that fails to recognize, much less honor, its debts to those who form the next generation may expect to vanish."
