Both EXCELLENT points. You know that if there were a screening for parenthood, the responsible agency personnel would not be able to avoid consciously or unconsciously discriminating against whoever they happened to feel shouldn't breed so much... Eventually, only employed middle-class and above people with no family history of any type of genetic 'defect' (again, open to interpretation what constitutes a defective human) would be allowed to continue their genetic line...

Already people can be denied health insurance based on their genetic propensity to disease... it's only a matter of time...
stinkyattic Reviewed by stinkyattic on . Should You Have to Have A permit To Have Children? A friend of mine and I were arguing about this. I can see both sides. Some people shouldn't have children though and this could prevent some weirdos from having children. But on the other hand the government is big enough as it is and it would be almost impossible to enforce. But in a perfect world, what do you think? Rating: 5
