Also, I have no doubt your kids are wonderful. My kids are also greatly influenced by their mother and many kids turn out well despite us

"You should consider moving"
I have considered it, thanks...my elderly parents live a mile away, my wife who stays at home helps them with all manner of chores...they aren't moving, and they'd be cosmically screwed if I left. I could do more for my kids if we moved, but I can't do anything for my parents if we moved.
"It is really sad"
What's sad is that thanks to the exact policies you support, I am in the awesome position of getting to choose between my responsibility to my children, and my responsibility to my parents, to whom I owe everything. It's a great spot to be in. And all thanks to liberal economics.
"many kids turn out well despite us
"
Certainly true in my case!
