> I hope parents can be considerate, prepared, loving and financially stable before having children. That's neither ethical, nor is it possible since reproduction is such a strong biological drive. However, what is possible, is having the government rethink social support, making sure that each member of society has a safety net, and doesnt need to worry about getting his basic needs met (food, water, shelter etc). Basic income seems to be the best fit here. This won't completely solve the problem, because food, shelter will not heal the attachment problems of some people (people also need companionship), but it will provide a stable base, that is a radical improvement on today's status quo.
