Allowing one's children to be raised by strangers is lazy and selfish. And absurd.
Choosing to procreate, period, is selfish. And yet we don't scorn people for taking that path.
Therefore, it is more selfish to raise your child yourself than to have an expert to do it for you.
I shouldn't have to disclaim this by argument by saying that I'm not making a serious recommendation to anyone, but because parents are so defensive and irrational when it comes to how they raise their children, I feel that I must. I don't have kids and don't plan on having kids, so this is merely an intellectual exercise for me.
