We could just make it illegal to have children if under the age of 18 or perhaps 21...after all, technically speaking, drinking ages are put in place because younger individuals are too irresponsible. So why should it be any different when having children? A 16-year-old
child can have their own
child but can't even buy a glass of wine? This can at least clear up some teen pregnancy stats.

Along with your idea of tax breaks, anyone who wants to have children should have a mandatory yearly fee imposed for each child. Or perhaps the number of children allowed per houshold should be dependent on household income. This could maybe reduce the amount of children living in poor conditions, on welfare, or even homeless...key word being
maybe.
