So I’ve been thinking for a while about this subject, and I finally decided to make a post about this some time after I saw a YouTuber say what I put on the title of this post.
Thing is, I’ve noticed that very often young people and especially kids are treated as lesser beings, like if they were not humans beings with problems and lives of their own but just an annoyance that people have to keep up with.
I remember when I was a kid and I wanted to cross a zebra crossing cars would just pass by without stopping more often than not. Now that I’m an adult they stop pretty much every time. I suspect it was because they didn’t want to stop for someone they consider to be lesser than them.
Also, a lot of people seem to think that being a kid means that you just play videogames or whatever all day, but don’t these people remember when they were kids? I sure do. Going to school has been the worst thing I’ve ever had to endure. The only difference with having a job is that you don’t get paid.
Just in case this is a serious suggestion: you do know how this would turn out. In most societies this would only lead to discrimination agaisnt couples of certain races for example as well as the issue of enforcement. Are you going to force an abortion on anyone found procreating without a license? And then the final issue I see is that it would be difficult for poor people to get a license depending on the hurdles and would only lead to more supremacy by the wealthy
I mean in a socialist society. Then again, in a socialist society, child abuse would probably go way down, lessening the need for a parenting license in the first place.
I wouldn’t force an abortion on anyone found to be pregnant without having a license, that would be way too far for me.
You have a fair point on your last sentence, but that sounds more like a capitalist society. But again, capitalism will take time to be dismantled.
