Not sure how you got from "let's encourage fathers and mothers to stay together to raise children with better outcomes"
to
"seeking discrimination as a policy goal"
That's quite a stretch honestly.
- dragonwriter 3y ago> Not sure how you got from "let's encourage fathers and mothers to stay together to raise children with better outcomes" to "seeking discrimination as a policy goal" Whether it's primarily by gender composition or by biological relationship, what you are proposing is strictly additional discrimination over the alternative you asked to be justified of supporting two-parent families generally and without discrimination among them. As such, you should bear the burden of supporting that additional discrimination as desirable, rather than your interlocutor bearing the burden of justifying its absence as desirable.
- ryanwaggoner 3y agoYou're commenting on a thread about a claim that what's "best" is for children to have a father and a mother, not "let's encourage fathers and mothers to stay together", which is quite different.
- bluefirebrand 3y agoYour reading of this is much different than mine and I don't care to quibble over random internet opinions today. Especially not opinions that aren't even mine. Have a good one.
