You read that right… A Mumbai businessman has taken the phrase “unhappy birthday” to a whole new level by suing his own parents for bringing him into this world without his permission. Yeah, seriously.
Raphael Samuel told the BBC that being born is basically a lifetime sentence to suffering — and since nobody asked him if he wanted in on the deal, he’s now demanding justice.
“It was not our decision to be born,” says Raphael, who fully admits he knows our consent can’t be obtained before birth — but argues that doesn’t make it okay.
Imagine taking your parents to court because of that? While some might say this is next-level drama, Raphael’s argument hits a deep, philosophical nerve about choice, existence, and suffering.
Moral of the story? Sometimes life hands you a wild curveball… and all you can do is pass.
What do you think? Is Raphael onto something or just making a fuss? Drop your thoughts below!
