Kinderlieb

You know, there are countries in Europe that actually pay their citizens to have children? They get paid to stay home and raise them for the first phases of life, too. It's freaking amazing. Some of these countries include German, Norway, Sweden, Austria, just to name a few.  In Germany, it's called "Kinderlieb"

 What I find interesting is that these countries also have:
1. A better standard of living,

2. A better Quality of Life,

3. Children are more educated than Americans in all subjects,

4. SIGNIFICANTLY fewer infant mortalities (in fact, the US is ahead Croatia, Slovenia, and Serbia- SAD!)

I'm just going to throw this out there, but there seems to be a correlation between countries that actually care about sustaining their cultures and populations and the family care that is provided by the state. And it isn't that there is a dramatic difference in the birth rate that would explain this DRAMATIC difference:













What is painfully obvious to me is that Americans don't really care about their children as a country. They don't see that there is a problem with both parents going to work and dumping their child off at some internment camp called a day care where they are sat in front of the television or given appeasement toys all day.

Wouldn't it be great if we had a country that really cared about the next generations?

In the meantime, don't tell me what a great country America is when we don't even support the raising of our children (even when it turns out its in our best interest).
