>The parents job is to keep their kids out of trouble.

I challenge that anyone believes this, and for my evidence, I would submit all the age based laws that protect children regardless of what parents do.

We have already, long ago, decided that it is the government's job to protect children, at least in cases where parents fail to do an adequate job. That's why I don't see this ending any other way. The march to total domination by the side of the government might be slow, but they already won the war around a century ago (exact timeline for laws protecting children in place of parents is a very long topic and does differ country to country, I recall hearing some places still even let kids buy alcohol if they say it is for their parents to consume).
