Some people should never be parents

Some people should never be parents

Who's saying what

I'm sorry to be such a Cassandra and state the problem without offering solutions... These seem the most obvious suggestions: 1. Education. Schools teach you trigonometry ad nauseum... yet even in ...

So many issues in this world could be solved if people were just a little bit more responsible with their junk. I mean, the proportion of criminally inclined and antisocial nutjobs that would have come from a home with an abusive/neglectful/emotionally immature or unprepared guardian you'd assume would be in a majority. I'm sure there are exceptions to this and there are also environmental exposures that would contribute to a young persons sense of self and character but for the most part the early development of a child is steered largely by their primary guardian.

I find it kind of baffling that you need a license to drive a car or operate of forklift but any douchebag is free to reproduce regardless of whether they are prepare for the consequences. Also, for a species that's essential pro-created using the same mechanic for thousand of years, to be ignorant of how this goes down is pretty much inexcusable. The whole idea of an accidental pregnancy, which granted a massive portion of this generation is the result of, seems like a puzzling notion. I mean, there's nothing particularly accidental about sex... in fact you could say that the whole act is considerably deliberate. It's not like you can be walking down the street, trip over a crack in the pavement and fall into a vagina. It actually requires a fair bit of orchestration, and depending on your inclination certain props.

If the parents have their heads screwed on right, accidental pregnancies aren't necessarily the issue, the issue really lies when people who aren't ready for the responsibility of a child, raise a child. Courtesy of our worldly webmaster I recently came across a blog dedicated to people who shouldn't  be left in the same room as a young person and I literally weep for the future.

    those images are so pro-abortion just in reverse logic! if the kids had the ability and the fwd vision, im sure they'd press the abort button to save themselves from parents like that! still, the stupidity made me laugh.

    I don't know, call me crazy but I don't believe in the state mandating the rights to procreation. Even if the parent is likely to allow the kid to hold a beer can (I mean honestly am I meant to be outraged about that). I'm not really sure you can gauge someone's parenting with one photo and and a within 10 second yuck-wow response. Only someone with the most deficient level of visual literacy or who is overly prone to moral hysteria would think otherwise. What's with the fucking sermon anyway?

    AVVV you obviously didn't look at the rest of the gallery. There is a lot worse going on in some of those photos than a baby holding a beer can.

    The kid in the car had supervisors. Whats the problem with that? Obviously it is a custom in India or where-ever to throw the child from the balcony as a coming of age! Obviously you need to get out more - see the rest of the world a little bit and maybe some other cultures, not only your 5 seat belted capitalist 1st world country ignorance.

    gosh better not get naked in front of my kids, least they become self conscience of their bodies. I do agree there are some parents that shouldn't be, you have to be careful how you go about making the rules.

    "You do need a licence to drive a car, own a gun , own a dog but and dick can be a parent." I find this to be disturbing. Even though the parents thought theat what they were doing was in the best intrest of there children a picture says 1000 words.

    'whether they are prepare for the consequences.' should read: 'whether they are prepared for the consequences.'

    Yes, for the past 20 years I have thought there should be (months of) parental training and licenses required before people are allowed to waste our (my) tax dollars having children. There is a huge financial burden for every tax payer when kids and subsequent adults require help throughout their life - help that their parents cannot provide, or worse help due to injuries (physical and psychological) that their families inflict upon them (a large percentage of children are sexually abused).

    If a child sees a parent drinking - they can become alcoholics, binge drinkers, and waste our precious hospital beds (my friend is a doctor and in hospital there is a massive problem with permanent kidney failure).
    If a child sees a parent smoking, the rest of us pay two taxes - firstly them f'cking my air, and secondly paying for their cancer treatments and drawn-out palliative care.
    If a child sees a parent eating unhealthy food, the rest of us pay the price with hospital beds and medical specialists treating their obesity, cardiac, stroke, and other health problems.
    If a child sees a parent abusing the other (physical or psychological) - we pay the price with bullying in schools, and perpetuated family abuse in the next generation (and wider rape and violence in the community).
    The list is never ending...

    It's not just devolving the gene pool we have to worry about here - it's immediate financial and social costs that mean no one in a sensible society should allow noodles to breed.

    But what do we do - we give no-hopers full time employment as breeding machines by way of benefits and baby bonuses... brainless much?
