To think they should never have been allowed more children ?

[JellieEllie]

This couple have lost 3 children to death in a period of 16 months.
The father has now separated from the children's mother and has gone on to have a further child with his new partner.

Why oh why are these types of irresponsible parents allowed to keep on breeding?
Should laws be put in place where parents who are the direct cause of a child's death be forcibly sterilised to prevent further incidents in the future ?

zzzzz I don’t think it’s views on the value of life with disability, more the fact that posters like myself are uncomfortable with parents being allowed to disable their children with a lack of care, foetal alcohol symdrome or subjecting them to physical abuse. It is not about the parents rights but the rights of the children

By the time you imprison the pregnant alcoholic it’ll be too late.

This thread is shocking some of the attitudes are appalling.

“Forcibly sterilised ....should not keep breeding”
You have an appalling attitude which is another debate.
However, yes the parents need help.

Though don't get me wrong for a second people who abuse their child in utero are disgraceful

I find the number of posts arguing for forced sterilisation because "the child has rights too" a little odd.

It's very Pro Life in terms of saying this child has a right to a life

But also Anti Life in terms of saying THESE sorts shouldn't reproduce and this child's life will be unhappy and limited so best they not exist.

Why do you think you have the right to police other women's wombs? And a) the right to life of a disabled person? B) the quality of life of a persons life you aren't living?

From there you head into All foetus with known abnormalities should be aborted territory I think.

But that is genetics. I am concerned with people who harm their child and cause disability where none previously existed prior to parental neglect or abuse
