Funny how you can be too drunk to be a responsible party to a sexual encounter, too drunk to be responsible for a contract that you signed, but no level of intoxication will relieve you from any responsibilty behind the wheel of an automobile.
What was the old saying about alcohol helping ugly people have children?
I don't know how often truly mentally incompetent people (those under a guardianship) have sexual encounters, except when they are being assaulted by a worker at a hospital or living facility. The few I've known didn't exactly have "getting laid" at the top of their priority list. I have no idea how a sexual thing goes down between them ("have your guardian call my guardian, so we can get it on"???), but I'd imagine it is highly discouraged. Does it harm or hurt them? I guess it depends on how they do it and how it affects them psychologically, as well. I don't want to offend anyone here, but I would not want to be conceived by two mentally incompetents. The kid might turn out to be wonderful and run for president, but I suspect the odds are highly against it. As far as taking care of the child, there are pro-life organizations that seem to think we have more adopting parents in waiting than needy children available. If they were right, this would be no problem. I tend to disagree.
