Being a parent

It blows my mind that I need a license to go fishing......catch and release with barbless hooks, but ANYONE can just have kids and screw them up for life. No training or license required.

Let me give this a little context. I was a foster parent before adopting my 4 kiddos. I've seen firsthand the damage unqualified parents can do to kids and it's not good. The fishing reference is just meant to show how screwed up social priorities really are.

Back in the trbal times , you had to prove to be a great hunter and fishermen in order to be able to marry and have children.

@Adrift That's not a bad thing. Being able to provide for one's family is a big deal.
