To undertake this responsibility\u2014to bestow a life which may be either a curse or a blessing\u2014unless the being on whom it is to be bestowed will have at least the ordinary chances of a desirable existence, is a crime against that being.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If we fail to honour our responsibilities as parents, then though no law will hold us responsible, society\u2019s children will pay the price.
