Contraceptive Contemplation
Compulsary contraception. It seems Rotterdam is discussing this for “unsuitable” mothers.
I am a little torn on the matter. On one hand it seems terrible to see a child brought into the world by infit parents. Simply my opinion on that matter, no particular facts back this up. I’m sure there are plenty of cases that can be brought forward.
On the other hand, is freedom not the freedom to do stupid things? Sort of like being a mother when you’re unsuitable for it? I wonder who sets the standard and if it might be applied beforehand or after the first (neglected?) child. I wonder if this doesn’t go against religious freedom also. Strictly speaking there is the usual bunch of Religious folk who will oppose to any kind of contraception… including this one?
An interesting debate to have, but I doubt it will ever come to any real legislation. It seems a restriction on life. It seems more viable to me if a less intrusive contraception method is used and not forced but recommended and made available.
