re: #99 Obdicut

Think about why the hell you assumed i was going anywhere with deciding who did and didn’t get to have children. Nothing I said in any way implied it, at all.

All I said is that their choice is repellent to me. I uttered not a single word that they should be stopped. Nor do I think that they should.

Now, why on earth did you assume I was going there?

Relax, Obdi. I made no assumptions about what you thought, or that YOU personally were going there.

But this from your #87:
“but deliberately having children even though they know that their children will die.” combined with your support for medical ethics boards that reduce choices for caregivers (the dangers of which were pointed out by OhCrap in #91) - it was closer than I was comfortable being in making a leap toward who should be making decisions for couples who want children.

How should people have children? Non-deliberately? What? They don’t know that EVERY child they have will have this condition and die. They do not know that. You condemn them as “selfish” because they want a family?
