Well, here is something else to chew on with this topic. You say you dont want children born to bad parents. Depending on how you define "good" parents, I probably wasnt born to "good" parents. I didnt have a dad that was around most of my life, and my mom had to work to support me, so she wasnt there like she should have been. But guess what, it didnt harm me one bit. I am saved, passionate about God, I a stronger person, I have a strong faith because of what I went through, not despite it. Also, I know of people who were raised by good Christian parents, did things right, and their child as soon as they got on their own, went totally away from the way they were raised. And I would like to mention no parent is perfect, so no matter what standard you set, you will always have people that otherwise would be good parents, but missed it by .5%. You mentioned the woman that had a third child for more government support, easy solution, stop that. The welfare system in this country could use a little work. But this thread is neither here nor there. Theres this little idea in law, innocent until proven guilty, that kinda applies here. You dont know how good or bad a parent(s) has been until their child is grown. Even, then, some good parents do everything right and their child chooses to rebel, to go against their parents. The best thing we can do is what someone said before, preach the gospel, get people saved. And I would like to mention that its our job to help the poor, the sick, pray for them, faith without works is dead. Christians should never let the government do anything we as a church or as christians should do, because they will at best do it inefficiently, and at worst, totally make a mess of it and make things worse. Anyway, thats my 2 cents
