Privilege isn't parents taking better care of their children, it's parents doing a better job at taking care of their children than others, and multiple other things.

What, in your thinking, is the difference between "taking better care" and "doing a better job at taking care"?

Or are you saying that the difference is "than others"? Isn't that kind of implied by "better"?

Better could also mean temporally.

But yes, the main difference is "than others". It's just much doing a good job as others doing a bad job.
