Problems arise with parental responsibilities. You can't have a parent that isn't an actual parent making decisions for a child.So no foster homes? Adoptions? Step-parents? Children raised by aunts, uncles, or grandparents? This brings about too much opportunity for conflict, as each "wife" attempts to gain the most of the available resources for their natural child(ren). Obviously, this is a purely hypothetical scenario with no meaningful basis in fact, so I'll just point out the odd assumption of one-man-several-woman and inquire as to the nature of a household with one wife and two husbands, neither of which are certain which children are biologically theirs. There's also the well documented abuse of children in polygamous homes, do we really need to replay all that again? And the well-documented abuse of children raised by two parents. And one parent. And no parents. If any kids are more likely to be abused, it's probably the ones with no parents (foster or otherwise). |
