VI.   Homo Sapien Life

Homo Sapien Newborn is defined as the period from being physically born until the 4th birthday. The terms infant, infancy or kid are not permitted to be used to define a newborn. 

It is the primary responsibility of the legal parents usually as legal guardians to protect, nurture, direct and keep well all Homo Sapien Newborns.

The legal parents of a Homo Sapien Newborn are the biological parents unless the newborn is a product of surrogacy, foster care or adoption in which case:

(i) If surrogacy, the legal parents are the ones that commissioned the surrogacy; or

(ii) If adoption, the legal parents are the ones that were accepted for adoption as adoptive parents; or

(iii) If foster care, the legal parents are the ones that were accepted as foster parents.

The government, state, corporate agency or any appointed Administrator are forbidden to presume the role of Guardian or General Guardian of any newborn.

The legal parents of a newborn may have their powers as guardians and therefore custodians of a newborn temporarily suspended, should a lack of competency and duty to their obligations to the newborn in the following specific areas as legal parents be established:

(i) Sustained physical and mental abuse; and

(ii) Sustained lack of basic nutrition and general hygiene; and

(iii) Any form of sexual abuse.

The legal parents of a newborn may have their powers as guardians and therefore custodians of a newborn permanently suspended, should it be proven there continues to be a lack of competency and duty to their obligations to the newborn in the following specific areas as legal parents be established:

(i) Sustained physical and mental abuse of other children under their supervision; and

(ii) Sustained lack of basic nutrition and general hygiene of other children under their supervision; and

(iii) History of sexual abuse of other children under their supervision.
