To say you will restrict the number of kids- or whether people have kids- is a bit ridiculous. Firstly, because of the loss of basic human rights, and secondly because full implementation would be impossible.

Regardless of your past, a rational person would be able to identify that neglect is wrong, and CERTAINLY physical abuse is wrong. I don't believe we should just assume they're "unaware" of how to be a proper parent. Additionally, there are often other factors, such as alcohol (or other drug) abuse.
I think the best way to approach the situation is REAL education in the high school level. Not "human sexuality" or whatever they offer in some places- I mean an actual PARENTING class. And I think this class should be a full year. What a small price to pay to properly fund education instead of waiting for people to fuck up, and then paying for that.
