Parents that are overfeeding their child with tons of food everyday are immoral and they should be put in prison for that in my opinion because a child doesn’t understand the full social ramifications of obesity. A child does not know that they could potentially die if they get a heart attack or stroke.
I believe that if an adult still choose to be obese despite knowing the potential risk that could happen as a result of their unhealthy lifestyle then I think it’s morally okay for them to continue living that lifestyle. However if an adult is obese then they should pay more taxes, pay double bus fare and pay double the price for airplane tickets as a result of their unhealthy lifestyle. Because cardiovascular is number 1 cause of death in Canada and we should never encourage people to live unhealthy lifestyles that cause cardiovascular disease.
This past weekend I witnessed a grandmother advising her 7 year old granddaughter to be mindful of her bread intake, (it was something like: “two slices of baguette is enough, you should watch your bread intake”).
It’s my understanding that at least 1 (probably more) of the daughters of this grandmother (ie the 7 year old’s mother, and aunts) developed eating disorders as a result of their upbringing. (I’ve inferred this from other conversations in the family)
Would you like to enlist the grandmother in your crusade?
Should people with ‘undesirable’ genetic characteristics be financially discouraged from having children? Maybe we should sterilize them just to be safe.
No what the grandmother did is immoral because she literally lie to her granddaughter. People who have perfectly healthy blood work do not need to restrict their bread intake.
If a couple took a genetic test that show that they have a very high chance of having a child with birth defects then I think its morally wrong for them to have a child together.
Incest between a brother and a sister who are both consenting adults is morally okay in my opinion as long as the brother gets a vasectomy so that they can’t get have any kids together. Because what they’re doing is completely harmless and does not hurt anybody. They should also legally be allowed to marry eachother in my opinion.
