this looks good to me, but only in a fictional world or in a country like China.

how do u suggest we enforce such a thing?

LOTS & LOTS of these parents u mention are those who get accidentally pregnant and run with it! and many more are single parents who hardly get a chance to see their children for more than a couple hours a day sadly

unless u wanna make unwed pregnancy a crime [which will just add to the shit] or punish it by higher costs/taxes/fees and make all parents take a parenting qualification course and test b4 allowing them to have children or levy heavier taxes on them if they ended up with a child without passing the test of how to parent...

i just know such an idea will most likely result in fall of whoever that pushes for it in the political world! public outcry will be worse than anything u have seen before and all of a sudden our individual freedom and rights become very important and we wont sacrifice them for better of our society contrary to the idea that we currently have, to give up some basic individual rights & freedom for security and safety of all (the society)...
