Why would some choose to bear a child and place them in such circumstances?
- andrepd 5y agoThe things you read online... Like I said in another comment, making children is our #1 biological imperative. In a sense the only "objective" purpose it can be said we have in life is generating descendants before we die. It's ridiculous to say that the poor and capital-deprived persons in this world should abstain from starting families. The very suggestion borders on eugenics.
- zepto 5y agoIf it’s ridiculous to suggest the poor should care about the conditions they bring children into and should do it anyway, then why is it not also ridiculous to suggest that the rich should care about those conditions? Many people in fact do put off or abstain from having children for exactly the reason that they don’t think they can provide for them. > The very suggestion borders on eugenics. This seems like a bizarre inference.
