Hmmmm...nah I can't support it. 

Granted, they need to be punsihed for the cirmes they have committed, and hopefully this will deter them from offending again.

But in effect, they will be punished for crimes that haven't even been committed.  I assume they would have any children taken from their care currently, and I just don't believe the government has any right to force a person to undergo invasive medical procedures EVER.  Our own bodies are the last bastion of freedom, we can't let the guv take that away too.

Well something needs to be done.......

Do we really want to put up with people having children and then not bothering to feed, clean or cloth the children....because it might interfer with the parent's 'social life'????

Does ANY child deserve that??

If a person has a history of neglecting and mis-treating pets....the courts can ban them from owning any more pets...

Is a puppy or kitten more important than a baby??

Because, I believe false complaints are quite common in family court battles.  How would ya feel having ya crackers cut off becasue your ex made up some bullshit to get custody, or increased child support?

I think the guy in the OP means parents who have been caught by the child welfare services, and have a documented history....

Not so much the sort of 'he said/she said' that goes on divorce cases....

That might be next....however, I doubt it would make any difference to a paedophile.....

Although there is the 'Sex Offender Registry' system....

Possibly....
But that was only an example....and I'm sure the 'self-removal' problem is a technical detail that could be over come...

I'm not sure, but isn't there a type of tubal ligation that's reversable??

I imagine there'd be a similar version for men...

Of course I could be cynical and suggest adding oral contraceptives to Vodka Cruisers and the cheap Bourbon/cola mixers....

Apparently they have had success with it in the US with the chemical castration of offenders.  Completley and utterly destroys any sex drive they have.

Won't work bobby...castration doesn't stop the urges, or the ability.....just means they don't leave DNA....

Rubbish - the testes produce testosterone which affects the sexual drive
centers of the brain.
Take away the balls = no more sex drive.
It's simple.

LOL No, from history.....

The Eunuchs in the old harems of Arabia were renown for there ability to 'keep the women happy'....sometimes ALL night, with no risk of them fathering any children....

Something between 50% and 75% (can't remember the exact %...been too long since I read it) of the sex drive exists between your ears....
So removing the gonads reduces, but doesn't eliminate, the ability to perform sexually.......

And apart from what I just posted above.....

How would that stop paedophiles from groping children????
Quite apart from which, most paedophilia isn't a 'sexual' urge as much as an urge to dominate or humiliate...
Reproductive drives don't usually have much to do with paedophillia...
POWER over another person does...as it does in rape...

If we chop off their phallus, and testicles, this and force them to pee through a catheter, ..and for woman, sew it up, ...  then, lets see them get excited.

You know what makes me sick?

How a convicted paedophile and child rapist can gain custody of his own 4 children...and our courts allow this to occur.

Apparently because it was other peoples kids he'd sexually abused, they deemed him responsible enough to award him custody of his own children, due to their mother being a druggo.

These are crazy times we live in.

I volunteer with helping  young families. Many are under educated
poorer families. One family  I was   shocked to hear are now  having their 3rd child. The other children are not well cared for  as it is.  

But the main issue I have is the health of these poor  kids. Since the age of 18mnths to 2yrs  both started with what sounds like smokers cough.
Both parents are chain smokers and smoke everywhere around the kids, car included (inwhich they spend alot of time strapped into driving around  with nothing else better to do).

I watch these poor kids   at a young age have coughing fits that has turned to asthma and Im sure its due to the parents smoking habits.

I feel so so sorry for them as for years they have had coughing issues nearly daily.  they cough morning noon and mainly night They are constantly full of mucous , And now another one is on its way.

Im no expert but I just hate seeing this. The kids are tired and weak but they are sweet and dont deserve this !
May sound minor but, its not....

Go for the brain surgery option..

For parental abusers a frontal labotomy that turns them into sexless, emotionaless factory/street cleaning fodder that live in dormatiries/caravan parks and their earnings go to their children's upbringing.

As for the pedophiles....brain surgery with a 9mm. An internationally recognised habit breaker.
