Well, whatever handle you use, you SEEM to be suggesting that no one should have an opinion about how we should treat children unless their opinion concerns THEIR child. That seems a tad awkward, to me. 

I don't believe you could live with your own position. Which is the thing with libertarians. Questioned closely, they reveal that under their own set of rules, they would resort to violence against law abiding neighbors.

There's something about libertarians that puts me off a bit.
Like a lot of people, there are features that appear to be ok, a supposed "live and let live".
But sometimes there's also a "you're on your own".
Both of these seem to be compatible with each other but can collide too.

I know there's a book describing what exactly a libertarian is but that's more than an answer.
A book shouldn't be needed to say it.

btw
"Treating a child" is a very broad area.
How we do it should be let alone as much as possible.
The family ways should trump outside interference in general. Do you agree?
