Such people shouldn't even be able to reproduce themselves in the first place. World would be a better place.
I sort of agree with this, especially after watching the Baby Brianna video as well. But there's no way not allowing some people to reproduce would be enforceable. What are you going to do, forcefully remove their reproductive organs? Of course not. So I think a better option would be to maybe require all parents-to-be to go to a class instructing them on how to be parents, how not to abuse children, how not to accidentally hurt their kids, and so on. It is a miracle that the child in this video survived!
...and who's gonna pay for that? Common sense is something your parents should teach you and you should teach your children. If a kid insists on doing something stupid and potentially dangerous but not fatal, guess what; kiddo 'bout to learn a lesson the hard way. Life is pain and learning is not always as easy as pressing a button and processing information, storing it on a flash drive, and accessing it when convenient. Some people are stupid. Some people are genius. The point is, no matter a person's level of intelligence, everyone learns, "Hey, that hurts like a mother!@#$er!!! I don't think I'll do that $h!t again!!!"
Basics of life, people...basics of life.
Natural selection; it warms my heart to see that there are still some things modern science has no control over.
