Your system has merits, but is one of those many things that could only work in a demographically homogeneous society that values the collective nation. It would also require that the women are mostly stay at home (which would be great) but capitalism won't allow for real civilization to occur.


If you're talking to me, it wouldn't require anything of the sort, and I explained why. Even if it did, however, I don't think it's the most shocking idea in the world to expect parents to be responsible for their children rather than a public school system. You basically just claimed that society can't function without public school as a babysitter.

And I don't understand your first sentence at all. Why would anything I have said only work under those conditions?

We live in a capitalist nation where two incomes have become the de facto way families make a living.

School systems should not be treated as daycares, but where do you expect young people to learn social interaction en masse at a young age. We need to perfect the model, no argument with that. I would make it so that starting from 9th grade, you have the option for stay at home learning. Before that you need some version of discipline reinforced at younger ages.
