Perhaps you'd have to actually live around loved ones.
First of all, you wouldn't be allowed to have two kids, because having more than one child would violate the climate laws of the future.
The other reason this would never be a problem: Your kids can only live in a government-designated city. This would be enforced by a strict, all-knowing central government that will allocate people to living spaces based on what is best for the environment.
Sorry to bring down the room, but it's hard to look at the trendlines and see any hope. I'm going to try doing a bunch of pushups until I don't feel so sad.
quite valid, really. incredibly important for relationships.
but not so much for the relationships of others, no?
