It will be funded by the State, of course.
The State has lots of money. Instead of wasting it on stupid and idiotic wars created by the American Democratic Party...it can fund a new ministry.
As I said, through the Ministry of Infancy and Motherhood.
Which will not have a controlling authority of course. But a supporting force for motherhood, mothers who really have the parental vocation will be supported by the State.
Agencies of the State will hire thousands of psychologists and other professional to ascertain the conditions
Well... nothing penal.
The measure is dissuasive, not punitive. Civil trials for the child's custody will take care of it.
That means that nothing will happen if it happens one time. But at the second time, the child will be taken into the Social Service's custody.
The problem with Government bureaucracies is they may start out with good intent, but eventually they become self serving. Professionals, who are civil servants, make less than their counter parts in the private sector. They will compensate this lack of money, with power; regulatory power. While to have a career path, in government, that can last an entire career to retirement and pension, means growth and room for promotions. This often has little to do with the mission, but is more about company politics; Unions. Each new law, regulation and red tape will require more workers, which often becomes the drive of the agency's growth model. The mission to the children and parents get sorts of lost, until the Agency is more of a problem than a solution.
For example, the EPA in the USA, came up with regulation that required small fisherman have an Observer on board to monitor their fishing. The kicker was the small boat captain had to pay their salary of $70,000 per year. There goes their profit. This law was an extortion under the guise of caring about the fish. The Supreme Court threw it out, but it took a few years of legal fees to have justice. I can see the Agency, eventually, taking brides or adding loopholes, for rich, unfit parents, to have children.
If Trump gets elected, he is going to make Elon Musk his minster of a "new" Department of Government Efficiency; DGE, to fight slime with slime. As the DGE grows, Musk, can already see $2 Trillion in savings, that was caused by overall bureaucratic growth and all the waste that follows. The Government does not have any money of its own, that it earns. It steals it from the tax payer, who then get stuck with the bill. In the USA, the taxpayers are also stuck with the National debt due to Government taking unsecured loans and not asking the tax payers. Any plan for a ministry of parenting, should consult the tax payers, first, since the
public servants, come second, behind those who write the check; tax payers. Public Servants are not the Overlords, they think they are; steal and harass. This is government mafia.
The old fashion way was better. This involved churches and other places of worship. This approach was free and was more volunteer based, where moral pressure was applied for parents to do the right thing. If not, the volunteers could also act as a charity. That was not about bureaucratic power. Your idea is good, but government should be the last place to turn, since they are rip off. In the USA, the government gets about a -20% rate of return on the tax payers' dime. because of the interest on the debt, and waste, about 20 cents to the dollar is ripped off due the bureaucratic power bloat.
Having children triggers instincts in the parents, that make them the best caregivers. It is easier for most new parents to take care of their own children than their neighbor's children, full time, where instinct is lacking. Those Professionals will be more like highly educated baby sitters mercenaries, who get paid and also get to go home at night and leave the job at work. Parent do not have it they easy. They may not have the same empathy for the full time parent, who has to pay to do this, and cannot leave and go home.
I am not sure a part time baby sitter, telling the parents how to raise children is optimized, unless the rule is all such employees, need to have/had children, to show they real real life experience and not just book smarts. A professional who has no children and who believes in abortion of the unborn, should raise yellow flags (not red flags), even if they have a Phd. One would not hire a Passivists to be the head the DOD, during war time; DEI political appointments. That would destroy moral and add problems; Secret Service.
