So, AINTD, do you think having a child without being able to take on the responsibility for another life is a sensible thing to do?
Do you think having a child when your own financial situation is tight or even desperate and having to deny your child "basic" things is sensible?
What about people whose childhood experiences contain little good but lots of bad things (and you have to admit, many children have to go through things not even adults should have to experience!) and whose family was so "messed up" that they feel they have little or little good to offer to a child - should they just go ahead and "give it a try"?
Is a child's life something you should experiment with? I don't think so.
The decision not to have a child when you're not sure that you can give everything necessary (financially, emotionally, security-wise) to this child is what I actually call responsible.
Sorry to be ranting on but this is something I feel quite strongly about.
And what's that about Germany being sick and dying? Did I miss something here?
