Responsibility necessarily implies care. For example, let’s say you are responsible for baking a birthday cake. What would be a failure in this context? Obviously, failure would be to neglect your responsibility, therefore no cake was made. Or, failure would be if you haphazardly mixed ingredients together, making a disaster or a subpar cake. Okay, then, what would be the best way to succeed at this job? It would be to pay extra careful attention to every important step and ingredient. Likewise, if you are in a position of power, you are burdened with great deal of caretaking. Parents know this. Dog owners know this. What is a bad parent? It is an irresponsible one, one who does not care. What is a parent? It’s someone who has power over a child.
Moving on to the second point now, a mother’s love for her child is often cited as the most powerful human connection. A maternal bond is the basis for all of us being alive right now. Do you think you’d survive, as pathetic newborn infants are, if humans were like snakes and left you immediately after birth? “You’re on your own, kid”. No, of course not. This applies to every level of authority, from workplaces to government. The maternal bond is the golden standard form of governing, and the citizens ought to be like crying babies (i.e., protests). The government should cater to each and every citizen like a doting mother.
The end
No one is raised alone or else they would starve. There are people responsible for you being alive at this moment, and that has always been the case since your birth. This is something easily ignored, like how oxygen is taken for granted
Of course nobody grows up completely alone. I never said they did. I said plenty of kids grew up without parents. That doesn’t mean they were left completely alone! There are plenty of kids in foster care in the US whose host families provide some food, a roof over their head, maybe a bed, and little else. It’s a pretty old story, and again plenty of those kids grew up fine. I’m not arguing that it’s an ideal situation, or that kids in those circumstances have as much chance at a happy life as ones in loving homes (w/ or w/o their birth parents). I’m just saying it isn’t as black and white as you’re making it out.
