[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] One of the biggest luck factors is the family you are born into. [/quote]

Ridiculous. You aren’t randomly assigned to a family. Your parents specifically decided to have you.[/quote]

This is in the top three dumbest comments I've ever read on any site.  [/quote]

You’re too dumb to understand it. Too bad.

If two intelligent, successful, stable parents have children, those children are not “lucky”. Those children and their circumstances are the product of deliberate choices and planning on the part of their parents. It was not random chance at all, so it is stupid to speak of luck in this case.[/quote]

you really think that everything in a person's life is determined by the person's actions?

Do you think the parents willed the specific sperm to meet that specific egg?

I have two kids with my DH and they couldn't be more different. Different personalities, lkkes, talents. Not because of our parenting. Not because of controlling all the elements of their lives like pieces on a chessboard.. It's their particular genetic mix. It's chance. otherwise, aside from birth order having an impact, they would be exactly the same, right? And, I'd imagine, they will end up with partners who shot them in their own particular ways.

Plus one.  Our first child has special needs and the kind that put a tremendous strain on marriage.  Our child's therapist told us when we started to be proactive in our marriage since most couples will end up divorced due to the strain of meeting these needs.

Our other kids are normal and relatively easy to raise.  It's night and day.
