He doesn't want to be here



A Mumbai businessman, Raphael Samuel, plans to sue his parents for giving birth to him without his consent. He believes that it's wrong to bring children into the world because they then have to put up with lifelong suffering. Ergo, we didn't ask to be born, so we should be paid for the rest of our lives to live.

His mother's response, "I must admire my son's temerity to want to take his parents to court knowing both of us are lawyers. And if Raphael could come up with a rational explanation as to how we could have sought his consent to be born, I will accept my fault."
