Indian man suing parents for conceiving him without his consent

A man in India is suing his parents for bringing him into this world without his “explicit consent.” Raphael Samuel, 27, made a YouTube video, in which he said if we are born without our consent, then our parents should maintain us for life. Samuel is reportedly a follower of “antinatalism,” which is a bizarre, but increasingly popular ideology. His mother responded on Facebook saying she admired her son’s temerity, especially as both his parents are lawyers.
