It's not a subset, it's probably more than half of the entire juvenile system. Again, your lack of information here is amusing.

Ether way, what you do is not a representation of poor people and I'm sure they would be offended to know you deem most of these people as lesser than and unworthy of procreation. That is a slap in the face of community efforts.

Well, no. When I represent kids, it is because their parents are being represented by the public defender or the public defender has some other kind of conflict where they're representing the parent in a criminal matter. In these cases, every one of my clients' parents have submitted pauper's affidavits which have been approved by a judge. I don't know how my clients would be offended when their parents have sworn before the court that they are too indigent to hire their own lawyers. When I represent parents, it's because they or someone they know has the money (usually a parent, grandparent or employer) to afford a private attorney.
And I never said they were unworthy of procreation, just that I hoped that if properly incentivized, some people who probably shouldn't reproduce might voluntarily sterilize. You're making this much more of a thing than it actually is with all of these unwarranted assumptions about eugenics.
I'm not aware of eugenics programs ever being voluntary.
