    She’s not wrong - it is a parent’s responsibility to look after their children. But like… I’m still happy to feed a hungry child if it needs food. Because I’m not evil

      I understand that and accept that … but at the same time, if the parent is stuck without a job or access to help or just isn’t capable of doing much for themselves let alone their kid, why should society punish the child for the failings of their parent? And yes you can argue that people who aren’t capable shouldn’t be having children but our world is filled with people who probably shouldn’t have children.

      It’s our job in this current life to help as many children as possible no matter their situation in the hopes that they will grow up to NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKES as their parents and hopefully make a better world for future generations.

      We can’t be living in this life for our own convenience all the time … we have to make a better world for future generations who are relying on what we are all doing now.
