Pop control is not happening, instead there will be a mass disease epidemic that'll reduce the world population significantly within <20 years

Abortion alone doesn't put much of a dent in the population. For every one you take from the bottom via abortion, you'd need to take at least one from the top via Euthanasia to prevent an ageing imbalance in the population. At the very least Euthanasia should be legal, and without all this bullshit:
"...people with fewer than six months to live could have been prescribed a lethal dose of drugs, which they had to be able to take themselves. Two doctors and a High Court judge would have needed to approve each case."
We should have a referendum on the issue. Fuck what judges, doctors, and goddamn politicians think on the subject. We should have the right to 'opt out' when we feel the time is right. Never mind all this emotional bullshit: "...Dr Philippa Whitford ( no doubt some sort of fucking christian) the SNP's health spokeswoman and a breast cancer surgeon, argued that with good palliative care, the "journey can lead to a beautiful death". We should support letting people live every day of their lives till the end," she said, and she urged MPs to vote for "life and dignity, not death".

The year wrote about is 3906.
This actually sounds like the plot of a Dystopian-themed book I was going to write, it's about how the government controls every aspect of your life. And people who want to procreate essentially have to be "pre-selected" by the government and pass a series of tests in order to prove their physical aptitude as well as emotional and mental intelligence. From then on, babies are grown artificially in laboratories, and baby-making will turn into the most unromantic, scientific venture ever.

I don't know how people in this day and age can intentionally choose to have 5 kids.
I've literally seen families that breed like cockroaches, there might be like 500 people within a family in only THREE generations. Like jesus, in 50 years, you could easily be the size of a small country. Some of these people have TWELVE, NINETEEN kids. Then if each of their kids has 5 kids, that's already 60 to 95 kids. In one generation. Then say those kids have 3 kids, etcetera. Cockroach people, man.
Part of the reason that contributes to the high number of kids too, is divorce and remarriage rates. When people remarry, they often look to have kids with their new partner, and if they have 2 or 3 kids from a previous marriage, then they could easily end up with 5 or more if they remarry to 1 or 2 more partners in their lifetime.
These figures are even worse for people who don't use birth control. Mexicans, Latin Americans, Muslims, Catholics, Irish... This is why religion is toxic for our future.

This. A million times this. There's a reason developed countries have low reproduction rates.

That's murder bro
jk I'm all for arbortions up till 18 years old that'll keep those little fuckers in line
jk
Seriously topic though. What would people think about putting down horrible or violent children who are already showing psychopathic tendencies from a young age?
I'll give you 2 examples.
There was an American adoptive mother who went to Russia to adopt a 7 year old boy. Apparently shortly after adopting him and returning with him to her home country, she sent him back on a plane to Russia, alone, with a note explaining why she didn't want him anymore. She said that he was severely mentally ill, and that the adoption agency lied and grossly misrepresented his psychological well-being.
According to her, he would constantly throw tantrums where he would kick, hit, and spit at her. And he would make drawings of their house burning on fire, and constantly threaten to burn their house down with everybody inside while they were sleeping. He was like a 7 year old tyrant, clearly in the process of becoming a future criminal. People in the house were scared of him.
She was very chastised in the media and by the public for sending him back alone, but honestly, I don't blame her. Russian males are fucking insane! I would have given him back up for adoption if he was like that too. I'm sure her decision to do so wasn't taken lightly, especially from somebody who was charitable enough to spend thousands of dollars for an overseas adoption.
Then here's another example. My friend was foster caring several infants and toddlers that were in need of a temporary home. There was one time where she refused to care for a 3 year old, because this 3 year old was deranged. Apparently his parents were tweakers, meth addicts, and he had lived his whole life in a cage, very emaciated and covered in feces when authorities found him.
All the social workers warned my friend that she must not have any pets or other babies in the home. Apparently he had been kicked out of every single foster care home he had ever been in, because he would actually stab the eyes of pets in the home, rip out their eyes, and try to kill them. Same goes for infants. At 3 years old, he was already exhibiting extremely high levels of aggression, and parents were naturally afraid of him.
In cases like this, I mean, what other choice do you really have except to put them down? They're abandoned children, nobody loves them, they're already exhibiting hostile and violent criminal behavior, do they really have a chance?

Damn. Just when I thought I've heard it all.
That's a tough one, on one hand this person could grow up and be the one to invent something wonderful or cure a disease but on the other hand you have the time, costs, risks and after math of their destructive behavior that could also ruin generations.
I'm glad this can be discussed now, better to be prepared.
I'd have to say the first kid would have a better chance, but your second example, Idk if that could be saved.
