Do you think strict two child policy should be a thing? (literature.cafe)

With exceptions in cases like when a couple loses a child

Edit: in a scenario where everything is good. No wars, no famine.

I said in another comment that I meant as an upper limit.

And I said in another comment that it is similarly cruel to force vasectomies and control men’s bodies.

I also replied that it was not the point. The point is you're accusing the question of being about controlling women. Which it isn't. Why do you keep forgetting things we already discussed and going back to it?

Any population control question is going to be in bad taste.

I’m not the only person to have a bad reaction to this question and you know it.

There are no good answers for population control that doesn’t include torturing humans.

So? It still doesn't mean the question is about controlling women. And the point of asking questions is to learn something you might not know.

To say that questions themselves are bad is promoting blind faith.

This is an answer, my guy. Instead of acting suspicious for no reason, you could just do this and have a healthy discussion.

And my question wasn't 'Why do you think child policy good?' It was 'Do you think two child policy is good?' Which could be answered with 'NO' which is a good answer (if there isn't a moral way to implement it).

You're not peer pressuring me lmfao. If that bothered me I'd have deleted the post already. XD
