Do you think that sterilization of blatantly unfit parents - e. g. chronic drug addicts, abusive, etc. - should be at considered an option?

My father worked in child services for 30 years and say thousands of terrible parents with children that didn't ask to be treated worse than dogs.

.

In the video
The first part of the video they are living in filthy disgusting conditions & just, to be extremely blunt, shitting out kids - 3 years old, 2 years old & a 7 day old.

The second part of the video a bunch of children are locked abandoned in a room in very hot conditions with no food, water and insects, etc.

And there's thousands upon thousands of abused children in the world by worthless parents.

in principle, i understand your intention. but the problem is if "in principle" you allow this, that would enable a dystopian future, where the government sterilizes people it disagrees with. cause who enforces such a rule you suggested? the government. the only way we have to avoid this distopian future is not to allow this to happen in principle. meaning we gotta let these people have children to basically keep our own right to do so.

That's how you spark a revolution. The one good thing the Nazis did was kill the perceived legitimacy of eugenics.

Sterilizing toxic/abusive parents is already too late. The kid's already there heading towards their demise starting with their dysfunctional upbringing.

No, as that would likely be a violation of the 8th Amendment.

No, because however well intentioned you are it sounds like an administrative nightmare.
