Socialism is essentially inimical to family life, which it regards as a bourgeois institution — to use its own favorite anathema. Socialism would make motherhood a State business or profession, would pay women for this sexual function, and deprive fathers of all status or recognition. It would no longer be necessary for a woman to know who was the father of her child. Her children — up to a certain number — would be supported by the state, which would be supreme over their education.
