In retrospect, a stunningly obvious one especially considering I have
toddlers at home, and even books on the subject. Thanks!

One of the disturbing things there is that as I understand it,
socializing a child has always been considered a highly labor-intensive
thing, with high "admin load" and lots of personal attention. I hope
that we don't face the same situation in mud development.
