    Worse yet a lot of mental health conditions have genetic components so the kids are basically getting the worst hand you can possibly deal them.

      We should get the government to put a licence on breeding so only the genetically strong can have children

          I mean, genetics are genetics.

          I may have epilepsy and am strongly considering getting a vasectomy so I don’t accidentaly create a fucked up kid that can’t live normally.

          Adoption is always an option an all’at. And plenty of romance can happen without kids… Hell, ESPECIALLY without kids lol.

            Your personal choice is yours, and nobody can comment it. But making it a legal interdiction? That’s something else entirely. People with disabilities or illnesses can live long, happy and meaningful lives. Even more so if the society weren’t ableist.
