[quote=Anonymous]I don't know, I see lives like this and ask myself the same thing, but I'm also desperate to see a happy ending and want to do what I can to support parents in these situations. I also objectively see where our culture and society makes it hard for all but the most privileged, forward-thinking, type-a planners to comfortably have a family, so the mindset might be - it's going to be a struggle no matter what, and I have a decent shot at making it better. Most people have that kind of naive optimism where a chance at love is concerned. Also, keep in mind for every thread criticizing people for having kids they can't afford there's another thread asking why people wait too long to have them and why anyone would want to be an old parent. It's an argument that's hard to win. [/quote]
