It's people like this that tell me that not everyone should be allowed to have Kids.

Don't worry they won't have any more children. They have laws against that in China.

I didn't want to look it up, but I think it was a Swedish couple that wanted to name their kid Metallica and the state was fighting them. Not sure what happened.

When I saw this headline I thought it was Princes' kid....
