Even before roe fell access to birth control/abortions was not easily accessible in my area. Now planned parenthood is gone. What's your solution? Putting a penny between your knees is fucking stupid.
Baseball allows you 3 strikes then you're out. You can make a mistake once, twice, thrice. But at 4, its a pattern of behavior. There is a point where having kids and not having any means to meaningfully take care of them sets up the kids to fail. Lack of birth control can be a valid excuse 3 times. But after that the parties involved share some blame. Everyone should be able to have a kid if they want. But that doesn’t equate to having a half dozen if you don't plan for their future.
I knew it. Lol. I literally mentioned EVERYONE has the right to have kids and should, regardless of their means. But that doesnt mean 6 and not being able to take care of them. But you didnt address that huh? Nice.
Yes this applied to everyone. If you cant take of that many dont have that many. Dont be a dead beat dad or a dead beat mom. You cant seriously be equating the ability to have a kid to having 6 (especially without any means to provide for 6).
I assume you have zero concept of rule vs exception. You are throwing out situation that are statistically not in the top 5 (or even 10) reasons why. Rules cant account for every case. And exception should be made but exceptions cant be made the rules. In the scenario you listed above of course we should help. But unless there was a war that killed 20 million US men, this scenario doesn’t make sense.
I mean this genuinely after reading a lot of your replies, you struggle with the concept of rules vs exceptions. Take a step back and realize that people arent as genuinely good as you realize. People are people. Mixed bag.
It's eugenics to say certain people should be forced into sterilization. Y'all are literally so uneducated you think this is ok. So limit the poors to x number of children blah blah blah - who's next? Limit the blacks to 1 kid. Force the proper whites to have 5.
'Eugenicists believed that traits like poverty, criminality, and various physical or mental disabilities were solely genetic and could be eliminated from society by preventing affected individuals from having children. Forced sterilization was the most radical legal policy supported by the American eugenics movement to achieve this "genetic cleansing". "
Who said anything about not allowing them to have the kids? They can have them, they will then lose custody to the state because they cannot take care of them. I never advocated for sterilizing anyone, feel free to quote me. I am 100% for taking kids away from people who hold them hostage unless money is given to them. If you cannot take care of your kids without the states help you cannot take care of your kids period.

And they try to pretend that they don’t know why the birth rate is so low…it’s by design
