I agree, there is nothing wrong with encouraging people to give thought as to whether they are going to have children. All kinds of opinions and healthy discussion are great. I fully support this. I would love people to put more thought into having children, and especially consider adoption as an alternative more often.
However, it's a whole other thing to start enforcing principles, as in make it illegal for certain people to have children based on their medical conditions. I'm not saying that this is what you are suggesting, you may just want to promote discussion as above.
Even if good cases could me made, I think the way in which such laws would have to be enforced would be way more harmful to society in general than any good that comes out of it.
