Down syndrome, acromegaly disorders, and other causes of mental retardation dont just predispose children to suffering but greatly impacts potential. Children and unlimited potential. They can do and be anything. Birth defects almost always limit them to being a dependent burdens that will live a shell of a life. Parents will watch their child suffer and probably die before them. The emotional, physical, mental, and monetary burden is massive. In these situations it would be hard to fault someone for aborting the child. I personally wouldn't want to waste years of my life on a child with a birth defect when I could just try again or even adopt a perfectly normal child.

I think describing it as suffering isn't quite right. Conditions like down syndrome, acromegaly disorders, and other extreme birth defects dont just predispose children to suffering but greatly impacts potential. Children and unlimited potential. They can do and be anything. Birth defects almost always limit them to being a comatose dependent burden. In these situations it would be hard to fault someone for aborting the child. I personally wouldn't want to waste years of my life on a child with a birth defect when I could just try again or even adopt a perfectly normal child.

I think what you say is true. I just don't love my brothers anymore... I just love my mom and hate to see her hurting because of them.

I will try to approach them with peace in time but currently I think I need to give it more time.

They both take so much for granted from her. They believe the government should be helping everyone / ensuring equity but they are fine in receiving benefits from my parents.

Wish media wasn't spewing evil at all corners. I tried to explain to my mom that their habits of reddit, NPR, and main stream media on repeat is just going to make them believe what they do even more so.

Time heals all wounds I suppose. I cannot change them but maybe they will come around eventually. Thanks brother.

Damn, I never heard of this before. Human nature really does not change.

My thoughts exactly. Sadly my mother wont feel the same.

There needs to be a documentary on this. It would help my mother move on. I don't think she realizes how insane their views are, and how deeply they feel that people on the right are nazis.

Thanks for the advice and I'm sorry you have had the same.

I don't see how I can deal with someone who thinks I am a nazi for supporting Trump. Being a libertarian and against big government I'd be the worst nazi of all time.

Killed me seeing "up to 19 years in prison". Fuck that thanks for playing this game called life you go to the chair. All your assets are sent to the victims family. Minimum of 40 for ending a life that early.

What causes that reaction? The human body is wild.

Looks like they give pennies on the dollar if you die.

I mean social security is kind of stupid. Could pay into your whole life but if you die before getting any return your family sees 0 of it. I'd be for getting rid of it.

Is this list confirmed? A blank sheet with names seems too convenient.

While a victory is great this day should be remembered somberly. This act saved many American's but the many innocent people that perished should be remembered as a sad fate of those met during hard times.

I do understand Japan did commit man war crimes before people downvote.

Hope it works out friend. Many including myself are looking down on teachers because of this shit show. I often forget there are still good ones out there trying to get back.

So much will be lost if we go online and who knows what will happen to the future of the job if we do that...

Had a roommate from India and he would always talk about how India is so great and america has so many problems. Dont think he realized how bad modern day slavery is there.

I get not all NA had slaves I was just using lib logic to show it's flawed. Basically saying if a certain race had slaves then all members of that race are guilty of that sin.

What society has never had slaves? Native indians would capture and enslave or execute the loser. Africans still use slaves. Europeans had slaves but were just very successful in using them. Arabs still have slaves too.

America bad though. Need to be socialist to be anti racist.

My brothers girlfriend is an elementary school art teacher and said how this is the ideal. Gets paid but doesnt have to do shit. Arts should be like sports just have people interested do it after school but fucking hiring these people.
