But, that needs to be metered through the custody of parents, where the parents are sound and are appropriatly protecting the childs interests.

Ah, but the issue then arises as to whether or not the parents are competent enough to dole out such judgements. What about the parents who are otherwise incapacitated? (Perhaps those waiting in the padded confines of death row isolationism?) The parents who aren't there, and who shuttle the kids off to the grandparents'/aunt or uncle's/other relative's house? There are an infinite amount of variable that could stem from every possible circumstance, which is why I think the Constitution is a bit vague.

The interpretation of the law has changed as the times have changed, adapting to fit whatever situation the US finds itself in.

I'm starting to stray away from my point. If the parents are unable to make sound decisions as to the welfare of their children, what then?
