Should being a parent be something that should be licensed?

[-Arya-]

China has their ONE CHILD PER COUPLE policy (not quite licensing parenthood, but similar in government having control over it's citizens procreation).....this lead to untold number of secret unnecessary abortions simply due to the woman was pregnant with a girl baby...which has lead to a shortage of available women for guys to marry today.

So in my opinion....while I believe that there are many parents that absolutely do not need to be parents....having government control over who has kids is not the answer.

I agree with this.

A whole list of new problems could emerge out of such policies, so it's best to leave the government out of it.
