Children are not working class and should never be, selfish parents are not the way to be either.
Your way of thinking is very flawed and might be caused by hangups or trauma.
Some children especially those with Capricorn influences have shit unreliable fathers and take matters into their own hands. Though, this is not for everyone nor it is the normal state of a child. This person can turn hardship to power, another child with Pisces or Cancer influences can just turn to drugs, escapism, unreliability, then death or overdosing.
The Capricorn child that took matters into their own hands even after turning their situation around will still have to deal with serious trauma, mental/emotional wounds, being cruel, and complex ptsd because that’s not the way for a child to be, ever.
Just like how children are just not sexually mature and pedophilia is a crime, child labor is a crime as well.
If you mean introduce some discipline and responsibility that’s okay up to a limit, just not in the way you mentioned.
The parents are the primary caretakers, role model, and sense of security to a child. Having unreliable, selfish parents can mean serious problems for a kid, psychologically and emotionally.
Don’t mention history as the past is really shit. Inquisition, dark ages, elitism, vast ignorance, sex slavery, slavery in general, and pedophilia are a very “historical” and existing part of history, doesn’t mean it's right. We look forward to the future, the Aquarius.
