And it's not about about caring about their kids, it's about being responsible for them ... Big difference !!!

You assume too much. How do you know what does/doesn't affect me? I was only espousing examples about how absurd a proposed law like this would be, and somewhat tongue-in-cheek. We don't have to agree.
If you don't CARE about something, can you truly be responsible for it? So they do go hand in hand. Not quite the difference I'm thinking you want it to be. You read into what I wrote what you wanted to read into it. I think you're misunderstanding my point. There's no politics. It's a statement about silly, man-made laws that do nothing to actually solve issues. It's a societal problem. You simply can't make people be responsible for what they choose not to be responsible for, simply by passing laws. You have to do the hard part, like change the culture. Laws are band-aids that don't cover all wounds. But if you like someone else telling you how you should live the details of your life, then sure, support and pass all the laws you like.
