Yup, now I know you're an idiot.

Some large babies are the result of GD or obese mothers.

I grow 7 lb babies. We're not big people (5'1" and 5'7"), we were both in the 7s at birth. Trust me when I tell you I WISH I could have eaten for a large part of my pregnancy, but I spent a good portion of it vomiting. It had nothing to do with wanting to stay thin or avoid stretch marks. I still got an enormous belly because my body just took over and I gained 30 lbs past pre-pg weight both times. My stomach is destroyed by diastasis and stretch marks-it wasn't like I had any say in any of that.

What an odd thing to be smug about. Like you had much control over any of this.


I think the OP of this tangent is being sarcastic. And you bit.


That's why I originally asked for further explanation. If they were still being sarcastic, fine But there are actually people who hold this opinion.

NP here, I think the PP who added details and welcomed others to flame away was being dead serious. Of all of the silly bs opinions people have raised on this thread, why would this be the fake one?

I think camouflage clothing belongs in the woods, on people with guns over their shoulders as they hunt for whatever is in season. OR the military. It doesn't look cute on your kid, ESPECIALLY when it's pink

How would you feel if your money started to read "In Batman we Trust", or if every town you drove through had at least three Batman Churches, but only one Christian church every 200 miles? What if you were considered rude for saying that Batman's birthday shouldn't be a Federal Holiday? What if you didn't want your children to have to say "One Nation, Under Batman, Indivisible" in school? What if the story of Batman ended with him being blown up with a grenade and everyone wore little grenades around their necks? What if you had to swear into court on the first Batman comic?
What if you knew, for a fact, that people would elect anyone who believed anything about Batman, but would never elect you because you didn't belong to any of the Batman sects?

Yeah, like that. That is what makes some atheists rude. Because we are swimming in it and can barely breathe. But I would never be rude to you, and I would never play the victim like the Christians do.


I'm the PP/Christian you're responding to. I understand your POV and, honestly, that's something I hadn't thought much about. Thanks for not being rude. Please understand that not all Christians play the victim.

I'm Lutheran. I find God splashed all over pur currency and in our schools and our government (by dint of the dinguses in Congress) disgusting. Faith is supposed to be private but lives truthfully, not blabbed about and lived falsely.

I don't have any respect for people who claim to be pro-life but are also ok with war/or the death penalty.

So much cognitive dissonance.

Also those who miscarry. There is something physically wrong with them on both counts and they shouldn't have children.


Ohhhhkay.

You're also an idiot. My aunt had multiple miscarriages in the late 80s until they figured out she had an incompetent cervix. Once that was fixed with a couple stitches, she went on to have 3 kids in 4 years. 3 incredibly healthy and happy and bright children.

Others miscarry due to adrenal/hormone problems that can be corrected by medicines. Many of those women then to on to have healthy pregnancies and babies.

What about people who have miscarriages and then healthy kids?

Again, you're an idiot.

If you lose your job, it's easier to pull the kids from private for a while than it is to make giant mortgage payments while you look for a new job. And privates are almost always better than even the good publics in that you can find a good fit for your kid, and have much more say over their education.


Agree 100%


That depends on your definition of "safety net." If you lose your job and have to pull the kids from private, where are you going to put them INTO? A shitty public in-bounds school?

The other way to look at it is that a house in a good public school district is a much better investment (rarely loses value) than a private school education (the kid may still turn out to be a loser.)

Do you have stats to back this up?


Of course not, but in today's society "I feel" = gospel truth.

I think our society and the world in general is in so much turmoil, because of our " I am better than you" complex.

Religion is crock. God is real.

I believe peace loving nations will join hands to root out terrorism.

Your "amazing" public schools aren't amazing because of superior teaching methods or great curriculum, they're "amazing" because the students that attend them come from privileged backgrounds and have well-educated parents. It's classism, really. People want their kids to go to school with people who are like them.

Of course, if it is a legitimate safety issue or extreme distribution problems, that will hinder learning. But quit acting like your child is getting soooo much better of an education because her school is a 10/10 on GS instead of a 6.


Disruption, not distribution.
