Lately I’ve been noticing that the people who mainly should not have children, whether due to economic limitations, illnesses, or even mental instability, are the ones who have the most children, and many times they end up as single fathers/mothers. My question is whether it would be a good idea to implement some kind of regulation and set minimum requirements that must be met, mainly to prevent the child from ending up in the future as a criminal or a social burden due to those factors.
I’d agree with this in theory, but the government can’t be trusted with defining those criterias.
Also this won’t ever happen while the world is thirsting for more children than are being born to feed the economy bubble’s demand for infinite growth in an era of population decline and gentrification across the developed world.
