Here in America, we have fathers that burn their babies in microwaves without the mother or the father taking responsibility for their actions. We also have potential fathers that won't support a child known to be either their's or their brother's.
Here are the two articles:

In the first article the Mom blames Satan for corrupting her spouse in a moment of weakness which led to him microwaving their child. Luckily the child is still alive.
In the second article two twins brothers are disputing the paternity of a child born from a women they both had sex with within two hours. She just couldn't get enough of their DNA apparently. It is that exact DNA that is the problem; science can't determine which twin planted the fertile seed when they have the same DNA.
The most amazing statement, made by the brother the woman originally stated was the father, was when he said that he wouldn't take care of a child that can't be proven to have been created by him and that if the father can't be proven definitively then the state should just "eat it." If your sibling didn't want to take care of their child wouldn't you offer to fill the void?
Has anyone out there seen the movie Idiocracy? Our country gets eerily more similar to the one portrayed in that movie as every day passes. None of these people should be having babies.
Compare that to China, in China people have riots defending their rights to have more children than the government allows.

Everybody is entitled to freedom I guess. The Americans seem to want freedom from responsibilities, the Chinese want freedom to reproduce at will despite concerns about over population.
Where would you rather be born?
