Is the Family Endangered?: "Politicized pro-family organizations, in addition to characterizing the family as more endangered than it probably is, sometimes give in to the temptation to use their political clout to gain government support for families.Now I'm all for recognizing that high taxes have been one of the reasons both parents think they have to work these days, and finding any way to lower taxes on families – or anyone. But positive help from the government – marriage education in government schools, therapy for troubled couples, government help for faith-based counseling – is a two-edged sword. Government programs are bound to have a utilitarian, secular approach to marriage and family. And the state is not necessarily a friend of the family."
