All I'm saying is that it would be nice if you had to have some basic clue about parenting before you became a parent. I mean, you need a license to drive a moped but not to raise a child? Which one sounds more potentially dangerous to you?
Maybe instead of saying you want a license in order to have kids...you might suggest mandatory parenting classes. Maybe while the female half is pregnant, or maybe earlier (in school)?

I _think_ what you're saying is you want some social effort to prepare parents, rather than limiting the breeding population?
