Indian Man Sues Parents For Birthing Him Without His Consent

If the future of India includes people like this one can only imagine the reactions in Islamabad and Beijing.

27-year-old Raphael Samuel from Mumbai, India, is suing his parents for giving birth to him without his consent as he says that children shouldn’t be made to suffer.

He says unless parents are given consent from an unborn child, then parents don’t have the right to bring him or her into the world.

“I want to tell all Indian kids that they don’t owe their parents anything,” Samuel said. “I love my parents, and we have a great relationship, but they had me for their joy and their pleasure.””My life has been amazing, but I don’t see why I should put another life through the rigamarole of school and finding a career, especially when they didn’t ask to exist,” he added.

There has been a movement in India against the pressure to have children but most who adhere to the movement do not go as far as to say they will sue their parents for giving birth to them.
