Putting aside politics, with the exception of naturalisation, what do you think is the best way to determine a child's citizenship - country of birth or parents' country?

(Racists these days fight for parents country, but decades ago, colonialists fought for country of birth. Either way, try to ignore all of that.)
If you were President of the world, how would you decide a child's citizenship?

@davidnjoku I think it's important for people below 18 to be able to have both the citizenship of their parents and that of the place they are growing up / attending school in (which may be different from that of their birth), as doing otherwise will prevent them from having a number of opportunities that their peers at school have.
And then if they really really need to only have one, I'd guess choice at 18?
But I'd also say “why not both?”
