    In other words: Societies where people had children mainly for selfish reasons were selected against. If people have children because they love those children above everything else, they become nepotists that strive at achieving the best for those children at any cost. When everyone is doing that, no efficient, unified society can be built. A modern, complex society needs citizens who at least sometimes can be made to prioritize the best interests of society over the best interests of their children. Every parent strives for the best for their child is a modern idiom. It is false. When people are caught really acting that way, like in the Varsity Blues scandal, a public outcry will follow.
