I once joined a comp stomp, didn't ally victory, went away for over 45 minutes: Several players dead and the 3-4 remaining still argued... Good times. | ||

In a world with countless perfectly good (genetically speaking) children, breeding does seem inherently selfish. Though with how difficult it can be to obtain one I can understand people choosing breeding for practicality purposes. If people knew that because they chose to breed instead of adopt, that a child will suffer and they would get the updates on the child periodically, would they still choose to breed, for what reason that couldn't be reasonably deemed selfish? | ||

I'm just really impressed by those that do because of the challenges and good that comes from it. As for shaming people through making them feel bad. I think it would have some success, but more at getting people to make donations like the commercials of starving kids do. Very few actually go over and help but lots will open their check book. It wasn't a slight to you. My wife and I have looked into it; the issues are super complicated and the costs are not small. The system is so shitty and so depressing and the longer you look the deeper and blacker it feels. The biggest issue with adoption is that the conversations quickly transform from "lets have a family" into "what is our responsibility as human beings" and suddenly emotions get twisted very very rapidly. I do believe more people should adopt--but I also believe the system shouldn't be so hard... | ||
