Because of the high numbers of divorce, domestic violence ,bad perenting, physical abuse belittlement ,criticizen and much more pain that takes place in the home,do you think it would be a good idea to take children from birth and place them all under the care of the state until about the age18. I think the state could teach them many thing they do not learn at a triditional family home such as respect ,careing for one another, respect for the ederly, respect for property of others,self esteem and to see the other as a person and not as an object.

What exactly would you call this place?? Prison. The last time I checked you don't have to go there until after you've done something illegal.
I don't know what state you live in, but the state I live in has a horrible reputation of losing children that they are responsible for and a lot of those children that are entrusted to the state end up abused and sometimes murdered.

Do you mean teach them everything but love? Did you watch The Island ? They weren't supposed to know about anything having to do with love or personal feelings. That is a prison whether you paint it black or white or rainbow. It is a degredation and insult to think that any human could possibly think that that is the answer. How about just keep them at home in a normal environment and take the responsibility of teaching your kids right from wrong? Why are we as adults nowadays not able to raise our children with morals? Respect? Caring? Understanding? Self- Esteem? Oh, yeah, I get it. We need to push our own responsibilities off on everyone else and then complain that they didn't learn what we wanted them to. Hey! New concept! How about, we have our children, raise them in a loving home, teach them how to be decent human beings, instill respect, let them know they are worth our efforts and mean alot to us, spank them when they need it, Love them always, Set the example of decent humans with loving hearts, stay out of everyone else's business, Be there for our neighbors when they need a hand, let them learn from their mistakes, teach them right from wrong, STOP calling child welfare over a slapped bottom, Make sure the perverts stay away from us and our kids, and BE PARENTS!!!! Then, maybe they will grow up somewhat right. What? Were you raised by Hitler?? THAT is one sick, twisted, way of thinking. How many innocent people have you gotten their kids taken away from? Also, having them go to school and letting them learn how to spell would be a good idea too. Then maybe they will learn that parenting is spelled PARENTING not perenting. I guess you need to know how to spell it if you are going to be able to do it. Criticizing is also a word that our children should learn in school in spelling class. NOT at home. No, we should be parents ourselves. Not give our kids to the f--d up government that we have allowed to exist in our supposedly FREE country. Our government isn't able to clean up the messes that it has forced upon us citizens let alone change a soiled diaper of a child that some person probably would have had sucked out with a vacuum hose and never even think that it was ever a human being ( like so many cop- out people of today). Maybe you should go and give your brilliant idea of child-rearing to some third world country like=== no, I'm not even giving you a name of a country, You would probably give this messed up plan to a country that would do this to create an army that would come back and bomb us. We don't need any more of those around we have enough of a problem with that as it is. I really hope that the idea of yours was hypothetical and not one in the making for the U.S.

Not a good idea. Seems Hitler tried it...with "less than desireable" results.
Who wants a bunch or programmed zombies runnin around amok.
But, as to the ideas u have about kid raising, most families aint like what u describe. Most kids are reasonably safe with their parents. And most parents care adequately for their kids.
It's massive hard raisin a kid u know. And no parent is gonna be perfect at it. But I'm thinkin most of the respect issues are dealt with.

Not sure what you mean. But my children learn all of this and more in our home. Do you mean to say that everyone who has children don't teach their children this and all children should be taken away from all parents.
You really need to get a different perspective on life if you think this is the way all children are raised.
Good luck

the states have so many children that they can barely cope now.they will also try to put the children into foster homes,usually seperated ones.i had a friend who was put in a few and moved and moved again.they have food for you and a bed and not much more.these kids grow up so lonely and unloved.you really need to do some research on state placements from the kids that were put there,not the company its self,they sugar coat it.these are also kids that have no one and no place to go,not just a parent towants them to learn better values.a parent who really wants to do their job are the ones who teach these qualities to their children.

If you don't want to take the responsibility of raising your own children, don't have any. To institutionalize a human being from the beginning is about as inhumane as any of the other possibilities you have mentioned.

This is a terrible idea. The state already has enough problems that they can't handle.
