Change is hard and expensive. The juice needs to be worth the squeeze.

Far too often those introducing new words (or even worse redefining existing ones) are playing power games with their in groups best interests in mind, not the rest of us.

There are plenty of “child raisers” who provide more care than a daycare and less than a parent.

And since we’re being technically correct, raising a child is always optional (even for the parent).

I agree. That’s why I said child raisers have “taken responsibility.” I could have also said “accepted responsibility.”

I wouldn’t consider a parent who opts out of raising their child to be a child raiser.
