A man is suing his parents for giving him life. Raphael Samuel said that in spite of his “great relationship,” with his parents he did not give them permission to give him life. The 27-year-old maintains that they acted selfishly for their own enjoyment and pleasure when they decided to bring him into this world. Raphael compared having children to ‘kidnapping and slavery.’ Raphael is part of a growing movement known as “anti-natalism,” which promotes the idea that children shouldn’t be forced to be born. Do you think Raphael has a case? What are your thoughts on this growing movement?
