Yes it is a little insulting. I have to say I am one of those who believes that if there were some way to have everyone get a license to have a child then we should however until this happens it is blatant discrimination to ask one section of the population to undergo police checks and working with children checks before they have there own child.

I can also understand that if you were giving a child up for adoption you would want to know that these sorts of check were being done on those adopting the child but this has already been happening for some time.
