Baby steps. We already license for cars, so it's obviously possible that we can create a system that supports individually focused mandatory testing. Babies can be aborted, tubes can be tied, the ability to reproduce can be removed and the baby can be put up for adoption. Normally that would be a terrible thing, but in a world where breeding laws are enforced, orphans will be in high demand in order to meet the demand of parents wanting larger families. People are going to react badly to this kind of concept, but anyone looking down the road at the ridiculously horrifying future of Overpopulated Earth will agree that reducing the population in anyway, especially by keeping bad parents from breeding or from raising kids, is vastly preferable and necessary.

The world is massively overpopulated and we have no illusions that global resources, both renewable and finite, can long support 6+ billion people. The average 1st world human being ignores the problem, because it does not directly affect them in their day to day life. The rest of the world suffers from a lack of food, fresh water, medicine, technology, gasoline, etc... Yet the US is still sitting at an enormous % of it's enormous population being obese. Everyone has to have one, often two, cars which are huge wastes of pollution spewing metal and plastic, used to drive kids to school or go to the store; in pre-1950's people car pooled, they walked, they planned ahead and had communities to rely on. Now we have far too many people and the rich countries have left their citizens feeling entitled to living like kings compared to the billions living like slaves. No one is entitled to that.

It's obvious that humanity is not responsible enough to be left to it's own devices. We're selfish, greedy and impulsive. Children are dieing of starvation and myriad diseases that could be prevented if they just had fresh, clean water and basic sanitation. First world countries have an epidemic of unwanted children who spend the first 15-18 years many run away of their lives in orphanages. Yet, we still have no laws, no precursors even, regarding bringing new life into this world. In what way does this world need new blood when children are suffering in a system that is underfunded and constantly having their funds cut and in a world where there aren't enough would be parents to adopt them?

Roughly 50% of food in markets and farms goes to waste. Tens to hundreds of millions of tons of blemished vegetables are thrown away at harvest, bruises and little cuts during shipping make market produce unsellable and the huge amount of food that just doesn't get bought, because there's not enough people to buy it, all goes to waste. We don't need half the food that we have available to us, so about 75% of the total potential food, in North America / the UK at least, could have gone to people around the world who would literally kill for any food at all, because their children have hunger distended bellies and sharp, jutting bones barely covered by skin, just like them.

It's obvious that this planet is going to face hellish times if we don't push for sanity and reason soon; hundreds of millions of people would say we're already facing such times. No one has the right to think themselves entitled to do whatever the hell they want when it makes other people suffer. The majority of the human beings on Earth live in poverty and increasingly bad conditions. First world citizens can't imagine that, though, what with us having plenty that we do not need, things that could save lives, should we choose to share. That's not something people with practically nothing can even say, because for them, giving up some of their food to feed a stranger in need isn't sharing...it's sacrifice.

Humanity requires a much smaller population in order to survive, but the majority want their blood lines to continue, so everyone should be able to have one child of their own genetic lineage. If they get divorced from the partner they bred with then they can not have another child with another spouse, unless their child dies. One new life brought into the world and, if you want more, then adoption agencies from around the world can fill that need. Skin colour does not matter, if you think it does then you do not deserve to breed as no child deserves to be raised by fools.

Tests for parenting capabilities will have to be put in place and taken every few years. We have to get tested and retested to drive a car, but not to raise children? The world sees far too many horrifically bad, even evil, parents NOT to address this as a preventable problem. Besides, with the influx of information and technology that we've seen in the past fifty years or so, it's insane to think any parent is naturally capable of correctly raising a child anymore. We can no longer rely on our instincts. TV teaches 21st century children from as early as possible, then they learn to read and the internet opens up to them, the ideas and lessons their friends and sibling share with them are radical and drastically mutating much faster than the any generation of humanity has ever seen. The children of today don't react well to parenting techniques of old and parenting instincts often do more harm than good.

Humanity has never had education on so many myriad, often subtle, levels, from the earliest years of childhood onwards. Kids quickly become more like hyperactive / emotionally inexperienced young adults then the obedient little burden of yesteryear. Where do they fit in the world and in their parent's eyes? Treat them like kids and they might take offense, give them responsibility and they'll probably feel punished. This is no longer a world where parents can act without forethought and understanding. It should not be a world where they are expected to do so without some legal structure making sure they can hack it.

Adopt or face the numerous terrors of a world stretched thin on food, fresh water, gas, medicine, etc... After all, billions of people already do. 21st century man is a natural disaster happening very, very slowly. We definitely need to start changing the legal perspectives on human rights from the incredibly selfish to a tenable balance with global needs as well as individual rights.

P.S. With the cramped, overpopulated conditions of the world and the ease / frequency of traveling ANYWHERE in the world, it is amazing that we haven't seen a disease as easily transmitted and fatal as Small Pox step up. Yet. All it would take is one person in one town and an incubation period of 2-3 days and the disease would move beyond our ability to control it. We already know that Small Pox still exists in many government labs and is being weaponized bred and manipulated so it will mutate into a strain that the Small Pox vaccine cannot protect against. 2-3 individual cells is all it takes to infect a host, 2-3 weeks to incubate. By the time the first symptoms appear most of the civilized world would be infected. There's too many people and we have no defenses in place for this kind of scenario. Let's start taking steps towards living in balance with the planet, each other and the other animals on Earth.
