I attribute it a lot to working parents who have day care raise their children. My wife and I agreed beforehand that raising the kids was her job. I don't think we even left them with relatives before they were 2 or 3 and then only for an evening etc. As they reached school age and prior she did some work from home stuff. Best was working lures for Dick Nite, did that for like 25 years, and I did some also during that time.
We're watching my newest grandson on Mondays and Wednesdays while his mom has to work in the office, we're trying not to screw him up too much. I think he'll be ok.

My wife taught classes at the college level. Told me stories. I suspect that many parents weren't even aware that their kid wasn't even coming to class half the time. Then they would question their appropriate grade. Much of the class was physical so you had to be there. She felt sorry for many of her students. Pretty helpless generation. Either they weren't paying attention, or the parents had no contributions. I suspect both. Hell, I knew someone my age that never did laundry until his fifties.
