Breeding License

What comes to mind when one hears the word, breeding, most would think it is associated to the idea of animals in captivity or the common household pet, like that of a dog at a breeders, where one might receive the family dog from. This same idea is being contemplated with the human race, where people should receive breeding licenses before they can procreate and have family of their own. Most people can have children naturally but some may not be able to and those that cannot naturally have a more difficult time adopting a child. Two articles “Ban Baby-Making Unless Parents Are Licensed” by Hank Pellissier and “Sir, Could I See Your Breeding License?” by Kyle Munkittrick examines the depth of which you would be able to receive a breeding
