No, because well intentioned parents can make better choices for their children.
Think of questions like:
- Should a parent take a promotion that will result in longer work hours?
- Is it worth taking a compensation hit for a parent to stay home or reduce working hours?
- Should a parent place a child in a daycare or hire a sitter/nanny?
