No.

C'mon now Toecutter give the little guy a chance. Living off air is what many will be doing around 2030 but how many of them will survive? Maybe if we gave this a little more thought we could come up with a viable solution?

The solution presents itself. The more people trying to live off air, the more people starve to death, the more food/arable land for those of us who aren't morons.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'T')he New York City children’s services agency took away former “breatharian” David Jubb’s 20-month-old son in February after Jubb refused to let physicians treat the boy’s fractured ankle. As mentioned previously in News of the Weird, breatharians believe that humans can subsist primarily on air and sunlight. Jubb said he has evolved since those days and now eats, but extremely few calories’ worth, and he drinks his own urine. He acknowledged that his child’s diet is absent the generally recommended nutritional building blocks for infants, according to a New York Post report.

I don't mind people making themselves suffer. If it's their choice...meh.

but to deliberately starve your own child...or any child for that matter.

Inexcusable.
