[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Perhaps memory has deserted me, but I don't remember back when the Bethesda family with the triplets -- their house burned down because they had no smoke detectors -- I believe it was 2009 -- anyway, I don't remember a long discussion of their decision to have triplets, IVF, and so forth, and their other sexual practices. It just didn't seem relevant to their tragedy.[/quote] But that's BETHESDA. They DESERVE our compassion because they're from here. We don't care about rural folks from Louisiana. It cuts into our manufactured entertainment of making fun of them for their plight in life. Don't stop our fun now with your rational arguments. [/quote] If the deaths of their children could have been prevented by a simple installation of fire alarms, of course they are just as irresponsible as this woman. However, there is a difference in making 5 children which 3 or more men and bringing them into poverty, and bringing 3 into a stable home though IVF. Are you really that obtuse? [/quote] No, you are the obtuse one, plus some. Would it have made a difference if the woman had one child in Lousiana with the same outcome. Puh-leze, you are making excuses for your hypocrisy. [/quote] Of course it would have made a difference. one child would be dead instead of 4 (not that one is any less valuable than all 4 together). One unplanned pregnancy into poverty is a mistake, 5 is a lifestyle. And I'm saying this as an unwed, single mother. [b]She obviously wasn't fit to have them or they wouldn't be dead[/b]. [/quote] Yes you are so right. And that mom in Connecticut wasn't fit to be a mom, or her children would not be dead. How about that mom in Bethesda whose estranged husband kicked their son. She picked the wrong partenr. Darn, she obviously wasn't fit to be a mom, otherwise her son would not be dead. Do you hear how ridicuolus you sound. Perhaps she was not a fit parent, but it has nothing to do with her being impovished. Or, only educated women with a HHI over a certain amount allowed to be single parents. Perhaps you are not fit to be a parent. Who would knowinly raise a fatherless child. See how judgmental people can render a person's decison, you unfit parent, you. [/quote]
