I am responding from true ignorance - not inviting you to enter into a spitting contest. What provision(s) of the US Constitution do you think prohibits this sort of testing? Also, since this is a health and safety matter, it is more properly within the realm of states' governance. However, the feds take over anything they'd like by invoking the Commerce Clause. I am thinking that the most viable way to accomplish the pre-parenting training and license goal is to tie it to an economic benefit. For example, many federal grants and loans for college are pre-conditioned on males proving they have registered with Selective Service. Supposedly in China, one's health benefits are tied to limiting the family to one child. I wonder if that would be the way to accomplish the goal of a little training and a little prevention of child abuse. Hi DNCResearch,

But, the mandation of preparental training and testing is unconstitutional (not to mention virtually unenforceable), nor will those solve the problem. People are going to do stupid, hurtful things that are just plain wrong, but legislation won't stop those things from being done. It is absolutely horrific that children die, no matter how or why.
