The idea being that if a parent has already had their child(ren) taken by the state because they are unfit (due to drug addiction, mentally disables, etc...), they would use the contraception temporarily issued to them by a magistrate/judge so as not to become pregnant and abuse/neglect their newest offspring. If they became pregnant during the time they were supposed to take them, the state would intervene and take custody after the child is born. Possible arguments: [b]For[/b] - If the state is going to intervene and take away a child who has been abused or neglected, surely it's better to prevent it from happening entirely - Ease the burden on foster care/adoption (ie. availability, economic) [b]Against[/b] - Regulating who can and cannot bear children is immoral; bearing children is a human right - Allowing the state to enforce contraceptive use is a slippery slope to a eugenics program Thoughts?
