People bitch and moan about the government interferring in our lives. If we continue to do stupid things we get laws to try and control our behavior. Someone has to if we cannot control ourselves.

Irresponsible! I cannot understand why there are television shows that glorify people who have lots of children. (Or so I have heard...)
