Why?
Please explain why a childs life is automatically MORE important than the life of a grown man.
This is the most fascist of beliefs. If all men are created equal, why then do some become LESS equal as they age?
No child is more or less important than anyone else, and this "for-the-children" rhetoric that has become so popular in today's culture is responsible for some of the most egregious attacks against our rights in the history of mankind.
At the rate we are going; someday, out of the blue, children are going to be assigned to people, purely out of need, and it will be mandated that they are provided for, regardless of no parental link.
This is no different then what is occuring today with men who have been defrauded by women who wrongly assign them as father on a birth certificate.
Interesting how you add "life" to this.
The answer is, if you don't know, then you wouldn't understand an answer.
If you were a grown man you'd never ask a question like this.
