Contract yes, as it pertains to laws, but I would argue construct no- since protecting one's offspring is a natural/biological impulse. It's non negotiable from a survival viewpoint, and some people have better survival instincts than others.

You cannot invoke biology to generalize here. There are many mammals who use their offsprings as projectile decoys when they are in danger.
