  • This is one of the extremely few cases where I’m not sure if it’s Capitalism made it worse or there was just always some proportion of parents who were thing abhorrent.

    • I’m not sure of cases of ‘aEsThEtIc’ being forced on children of times past, though it may more simply have been that their parent’s was the only option not just for reasons of authoritarianism.
    • Not parenting one’s children and instead leaving them to ‘thing of the day/age’ isn’t exactly new. I recall stories of children being expelled from the home and left unsupervised until they were expected to come home of their own volition at the end of the day.
    • Without knowing what you mean by ‘alarming parenting advice’ I can’t really comment on that but what immediately comes to mind is religious commands to murder children who were insufficiently deferential to their parents.
    • Additionally to murder beatings were also prescribed for children in the books of vile darkness.
    • This one might actually be some abhorrence unique to capitalism.
