Children are chattel. They're the property of the parent (or guardian) until granted personhood by state fiat at whatever age obtains in that jurisdiction.
...for better or worse. Nobody minds good parenting, but how do you counter bad parenting without trampling the right of the bad parent to raise the little proto-human as they see fit?
Too much interference and you risk dis-incentivising parenthood.
