Not even all parents manage to do this. The parents who do manage to peacefully parent have something which no politician could possibly have for his constituents, Love. The well being of my daughters is paramount in every decision I make. I would give my life for my children. However, I only have 3 children. Trying to do what is best for my family is a whole lot easier than trying to know what is best for every family on my street, neighborhood, or town. In my family we have each others best interests at heart, as, I believe, does every (functional) family. I do not believe that is is possible as you scale this up to include people whom we hardly know. How could I possibly know whats best for your family? & more importantly, how could I know this better than you do? I cant.
