True, but I would start even earlier and say it is insane what kind of couples under what kind of conditions sometimes have children. Some people simply should not have kids, nor should they have pets are be allowed to drive cars.

True again - if only so many socially engaged helpers and psychologists and sociologists would not deny it and accept big risks for the general public in attempts of doing social engineering on such individuals inn order to prove the expertise of theior profession. Not all of them, maybe not even a majority of professionals are like this - but still too many, for my taste, especially in contexts of judicial assessments. The dangers of certain persons and personalities get minimised, ignored or whitewashed too often, for my taste.
