Consider the following:
- You apply for a marriage license. Marriage is between the H, W, and the State. The State must consent to your divorce.
- Courts can always provide for the "best interests of the children".
- The court stands in the position of parens patriae.
- You must vaccinate your child, send your child to school, and so on.
