If we agree we want to interfere with how kids are raised, and I'm not sure we should, then it should be to encourage the nuclear family and strong community bound by family and cultural affinity. I.e. the same model that has worked fine the world over for millennia
We should be discouraging the welfare queen model, not encouraging odd parenting models.
The interference isn't explicit; nobody except psycho Marxists want to directly take children as wards of the state. The problem is incentivization: you get more of what you pay for (or tax less), and vice-versa. Cultural propaganda acts as a multiplier for these negative outcomes (for society as a whole, but of course benefitting those who want dominion over a servile, dependent population).
False choice.
