Talking about the virtues of parenthood and family is one way that men brainwash women into accepting abuse and submission. Some men see children and families as a way to control women. It's built into their patriarchal definition of family.

Darryl George: Texas judge rules school district can restrict the length of male’s natural hair

"Q:When you see Palestinian children dying, what’s your emotional reaction as a human being?
Weiss:I go by a very basic human law of nature. My children are prior to the children of the enemy, period. They are first. My children are first.
Q:We are talking about children. I don’t know if the law of nature is what we need to be looking at here.
Weiss :Yeah. I say my children are first."
Oh hey it's parents and children again.

The parent's rights movement is no longer just white supremacy, it's heteroactivism.
Here's an example. This is a group of Muslim parents who demand religious control over their children at all times to the extent that they demand a right for their children to practice ostracism against LGBTQ+ people, even though the Muslim children may themselves be queer.

An analysis based on white supremacy alone fails to capture this type of activism.
