I know that for many unfit parents it is ridiculous to have children. But that is not my decision to take, nor it is the goverment decision. One thing I would like all governments to do is to make individuals (including parents) responsible for all their acts.

>>>People should have children based on the interests and quality of life of children who will be born not because they like to have cute little babies to look at.<<< >>>Look at the news and travel around the world then realize the world is in sad shape. I wonder if it is fair to have children born into a world that will become complete chaos and war in just a few years.<<< How old are you? Something tells me that you were produced by a generation which has never seen any serious hardship; likely post WW2. A pre in in WW 2 generation which had the guts to have kids when times were tough in spite of what their parents went through which was much tougher. Kids have a lot more survival skills than you do or give them credit for. They adapt and most make it. Growth in global population clearly proves that. >>>Look at the news and travel around the world then realize the world is in sad shape.<<< Really? I don't think you have done a lot of traveling. At least not over the last 30 years. I have. I was in China 30 years ago. I was in India. I was in Africa and I visited the same countries fairly recently. You have the guts to tell me that these people are worst off today? You are a fool governed by selective news dissemination. You pick and chose between major media and special interest media subject to whatever serves your chosen personal outlook. And to top it off, you are doing your utmost to cause useless arguments on this forum. I suppose CD let's you get away with it because you guys share coffee from time to time. At least Red who you always argue with has a track record. You don't. You "beaech" most of the time. WOW, I feel better now and I am now ready to be banned. kidl
