Societal expectation on the care for children grew immensely over the past few generations. When I was a child, parents largely just covered the physical needs and the kids were otherwise left alone to do their own thing. I remember being bored a lot, sitting in a room or roaming the streets.

Nowadays there's a widespread expectation that parents should organize activities, drive their kids' education, just be way more involved in their lives.
