The nuclear family structure is 1 mom 1 dad and their kids. You've heard of that. However, there is also community parenting which is how children were raised in prehistoric days. The basic idea is that you have a woman give birth to a child and every trusted adult in the community raises it. I think this is much better for various reasons:

1. Generational trauma would be much more difficult to achieve. In modern western society, children are stuck with their parents until they're 18 or older, these parents can basically abuse their child emotionally and they can't go anywhere, leading to trauma and them raising their children with the same cycle. In community parenting, they could hang out in a different home if their parents hate them for whatever reason.

2. More role models. If you're using this forum, chances are that you know how single mothers tend to fuck up their sons and their masculinity. With community parenting, children will naturally gravitate towards strong father figures for boys and strong mother figures for girls, and thus a positive gender role cycle is formed that is lacking today.

3. The choice to raise a child becomes less of an all-or-nothing ordeal. This means that people won't be overwhelmed with regret in either direction because they aren't stuck with no kids or kids they don't want.

What do you guys think?
 
A bit of both is probably where you'd ideally lie.
Having a larger community take care of you is what actually happened until not too long ago (industrial revolution or however my pipe is exploding), but having a final authority and responsable for you in the form of your biological parents is also necessary.
It gives a more permanent and close relationship within this community to grasp onto, security and rent-free food and shelter until your adulthood, time where you repay to your parents what they gave you.

Medieval times where great for this, but tbh you can still find those structures outside of towns, aka in rural lands

Is this real or pseudoscience?
It seems like a realistic-enough concept, but I can't at all support it with my own family. My dad had a shitty father on his side of the family (who, oddly enough, had a wise painter as his father instead of a similarly abusive one, further cementing a lack of this concept's apparence here), yet he has in turn raised his family to a great fortune and a life of pleasant wonders.

Wouldn't everyone have it if it were true. All the wars, stress, sicknesses and stuff would mean almost everyone has it and continues to pass it on for thousands of years.
 
Yeah I don't condone slavery.
Then there's the fact that they got treated badly even after their freedom until the 1960s. However, their situations that they put themselves in are their own doing (da joos too but mostly their own fault).

Same goes for natives. Imagine you're just hunting to survive near the shore. Suddenly, a pale man arrives from a giant wooden boat. Next thing you know, over 95% of your race dies to some disease and your ancestral land gets taken away from you. The remaining ones endured slavery, massacres, kidnappings, etc. you'll learn quickly to not trust the pale man. I'm not saying all natives have gone through this, it's just a general thing that happened (at least in the US).

This however doesn't excuse us from becoming better. Most of the plains Indians have fallen for the liberal agenda o algo. It's like they've fallen for the blackpill. I may be mesoamerican, but it gives me a great sadness to see others of my own slowly losing their grip on the remaining power they have.

I always thought you were Mexican for some reason.
