NEWS FLASH: It's all still the government trying to tell us what to do..........

It's like the saying goes. If you can't trust me with a choice, how can you trust me with a child?

Having kids is a privilege and should be treated as such. You shouldn't have them and then expect those of who choose not to have them to support yours. Most people don't buy a new car if they can't afford one. The government shouldn't regulate it, but people should think through all the issues before they decide to have kids.

And for the record........I'm a Democrat.
Perfect liberal comeback. Attack me and not the issue. So first I’ll deal with me. You have never seen a post where I am against all abortion. Never. I find your statement that the government should not regulate having children, but that people should think through the issues before they decide to have them to be great advice for the advocates of abortion on demand for the sake of birth control or convenience. Before a person finds herself in the position of needing an abortion for the sake of birth control or convience, perhaps she could have better thought through the issue. My position on abortion is this; the government should only regulate the killing of a child, not the disposal of fetal tissue. However, abortion is not the issue here. Do you want the government to have the power to control human reproduction by regulating who can and cannot have children?
