You're actually right because "bachelor type males" are rare. Most men want actual relationships with women down to deriving satisfaction from taking care of them.
Indeed, a lot of people do derive satisfaction from caring for others. Obviously not all, but plenty.
I think we should reserve the concern for impoverished children, who not only do not spend time with their parents, but are left to carve a path in the streets. I'll take the schedule tho! Hell yea.
That's easy for you to say as an adult, but as a child, you need to bond with your parents (or somebody) because humans, especially at early ages, have emotional needs that need to be met that can't be satisfied from cramming their schedule with things to do.
Furthermore, from what I have seen, poor children often have greater bonds with their families opposed to high income families who often live separate lives away from each other even though they live under the same roof.
Either way, people need to shoot for the middle ground, in that, obviously you don't allow your kids to grow up impoverished, but yet, on the other hand, you don't spend so much time away from your kids that it would have been better off not even bringing them into the world.

From what you have seen. Ok, but that doesn't change the facts beyond what cali does in his day to day, which is likely very little in the way of parenting, reviewing available family data IRT crime statistics, child abuse, success and outcome.

Is that your sage advice in between thoughts of wetting your willy and desires of subjugating women to a diminished existence of practical intellectual deformity via being your sex slave? Well, thanks for that.
In this case I would take neither option. Both are unhappy children. Wealthy families are just better at disguising how dysfunctional they can be. I speak from personal experience.
Exactly, I grew up with a kid who had money. His parents were both professionals, but only I was privy to the knowledge that my buddy's house was really an insane asylum. I grew up poor and my buddy WISHED he lived with me and my mom; he expressed this many times over a decade.
The end result? My buddy and his siblings all grew up dysfunctional and turned to drugs, all while I was involved in sports and never got drunk or did any drugs a day in my life.

It's not even about poverty, although that's a player, but education and intelligence. And look how you turned out. You are not what I would want my children to be, drugs or not.

Yes, well I grew up in a very affluent area and not every family was dysfunctional and not every kid turned to drugs. One family does not represent all. Yes - some kids had drug problems - but I have a feeling it was much less prevalent and much less detrimental than in some of the poorer more dangerous areas. Most of the people I graduated with went to great colleges and have gone on to have normal, productive lives.
And look how you turned out. You are not what I would want my children to be, drugs or not.
And that's fine. I wouldn't expect you (a female) to raise your children to be like me.
