[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]So we don't value families in this country. [b]So what? Who cares? [/b]Who is to say we should? We value what we value and you have to be realistic about that. It is what it is and no amount of "shoulds" will make it any different.

Democrats love to bang their heads against walls. It's very puzzling to me. Much better to just be realistic about what the world around you is like imo.[/quote]

All of us belonged to a family even if we have no children now.  A family is the most basic and important social unit we have.  The outcomes for children who do not have families is terrible.  Have you ever experienced a child who was in an orphanage or moved from one home to another?  Families and the care of children are what make our country strong.  Children need emotional stability and positive encouragement in order to have the chance to succeed in practically every other way in life.  Saying you don't care about families is equivalent to saying you don't care about people and people are what build communities and countries (so you don't care about those either).  It's just so basic that I can't wrap my mind around what you are saying.  What kind of a world do you want to live in?  Who took care of you when you were young?

I cannot relate to the PP at all.  What do you want for your children and grandchildren?  [/quote]

I don't have children and won't have them because I don't want that kind of hassle in my life. We have a close circle of childless friends who we spend holidays and vacation with, etc. They feel the same as me. If you want to have a baby, that is totally fine. But that is YOUR CHOICE and it is not fair to expect other people (I.e. taxpayers or your colleagues at the office) to do the heavy lifting for you. With birth control and abortion widely available, there is no reason to five birth to an unwanted baby you can't afford to raise. Find a way to do it or don't, that's up to you. I don't want to be involved, as your potential coworker or taxpayer.[/quote]
