It seems if you couldn’t afford your kids, you gave them up essentially to foster homes. It seems there were no “gov paying for your kids education / stuff etc”.

And it seems people thought this pretty normal and obvious.

If you think how it would have to be if government wasn’t giving you free shit for your kids, you’d have to give up to whatever charity would take care of them if you couldn’t afford them.

This seems like the natural way about doing these kinds of things.

Does anyone know about this time era and if this is how it was done?

I would like very much to return to this, but it would cause a huge outflow of city-dwelling degenerates into parts of America where will never be welcome as community members. ?This would lead to a servile underclass laborers (a modern equivalence to sharecroppers). Those who refuse to comply would warned out, eventually living on the heath.

...Now that I’ve written this, that seems like a stupendous idea.
