You responded to the issue of unwanted children and fallaciously alleged that there weren't any such children. That was exposed as being untrue.
Fine...but did you know a baby grows into a teenager? You didn't know that?!!! When it hits 12 and starts getting moody, sullen, rebellious, unrealistically idealistic, and tattoos etc., etc. WHAT would you do with it? AND, at least you don't believe that a fetus is "precious life"...
I didn't say there weren't any. I said there are plenty of people out there who would adopt, so the statement that there aren't enough people willing to adopt a baby is just untrue. There are millions of families who want to adopt a baby.
Well, since I've had two children, then yes I am aware of that fact. How many children do you have? How old are they?
Of course, it's a totally different ball of wax comparing taking someone else's teen (who has already been raised), to raising your own from the time they are a baby or a small child.
Fine.....for YOU. BUT not all woman want to go through 9 months of pregnancy, suffer the pain and damage to their bodies(temporary and permanent), suffer time off work and possible job loss, suffer career, educational, and financial setbacks (it costs money to be pregnant....so if you're poor and don't want a child it would cost MONEY to be pregnant and deliver.)...all to provide someone else with a kid !!!!!?? Again, if YOU want that, fine for you.....but not every woman feels that way...
OOooh, getting a little defensive there How many children I do or don't have has nothing to do with the topic(adoption doesn't either but someone got this off on the adoption tangent) or my views...... BTW, you didn't sound like you knew babies grew into teenagers.... """""""If I was to adopt a child, I would rather adopt a baby than a teenager any day! Teenagers? Yuck! ChrisL, 48 minutes ago """""""""""
That's fine, but I don't have to like it or agree with it either. I think the child's life is worth it.
Believe me, I am well aware of the fact that there are some really selfish peeps out there who should never be parents.
Oh, you're sexist , too!? You have no facts or a good response so have to get personal....and off topic
Sure I do. I would just rather not raise someone else's teenager. I would definitely adopt a baby if I couldn't have one of my own though. I could definitely bond with any baby. I love babies. They are the cutest and sweetest little things.
I've posted some facts and some good responses. Just because you don't like them, doesn't negate them. My opinions matter just as much as yours. Right?
Yes, and lots of people who selfishly did what they wanted to do and had kids....THEIR selfishness included others.....child free people also do what they want...and it doesn't selfishly include anyone else...
I'm just wondering since you are so vocal about abortion and you really kind of take it to a whole other level that I've never seen, have you had any children? Have you had an abortion? I mean, I have my opinions on it too, but I'm not as obsessed about the topic as you seem to be. *shrugs* It's just kind of odd, is all.
Oh, you're sexist , too!? You have no facts or a good response so have to get personal. Why can't you deal in facts? Don't have any???
Well, have you had an abortion? Have you had any children? I don't really think you can claim "expertise" on the subject if you have no experience with either.
