This is a surprise? Many people realize after the fact they do not want to be parents. And there are stages. 0-5, 6-12, 13-. Each one has it's own challenges, and your children are different people then.
And you make it sound like singletons are somehow damaged? Once again Rojo showing the real benefit of an Ivy League education is merely confidence at shooting ones mouth off.
Classic lib response. I’m sure this poster has an ostensibly “important” job.
The classic lib reply is to make an obvious joke?
Yes most lib jokes are obvious and boring, not unexpected and witty.
not to mention the fact that most people on both sides of the issue take it very seriously because you’re dealing with human life.
you’ve got libs trying to murder judges. They are not joking about this issue.
then you’ve got the poster above, when humor lens is removed, is essentially saying that people with minimum wage jobs don’t have a redeemed existence, their existence is not important enough to be justified. It’s also quite pretentious subtly communicating that his job is more important. But what is his job? How can he be more important than the rest of us?
The point is, it’s another reminder that libs think they are better than everyone else and they still put on pants the same way everyone else does.

You are drawing that conclusion, not the poster. The poster may very well think that every person has a justified existence, but they don't have that justified existence as a result of their job. They have a justified existence for being a person.
Interestingly, your view on minimum wage workers aligns more with liberals, perhaps even socialists, who argue for a higher minimum wage precisely because they feel that no job is that much more important than any other and every person should be able to make at least a certain amount of money per hour. They also believe that all people should have access to healthcare regardless of their job.
Most proponents of capitalism would disagree with your view that no job is more important than any other. They would say that some jobs are much more important than others -- not enough to justify a person's existence or not, but enough to be considered "more important". That's why doctors get paid more than fast food workers. Both deserve existence and to be treated with kindness and dignity, but one job is still viewed as much more valuable and important by the market than the other.
Am I to understand that you envy those whose parents went to fertilization clinics? Or maybe those whose birth was announced years in advanced by "we are working". How TF is that better than getting the good things in life the easy way?
Having gone through the process of planning for kids and getting pregnant, i am shocked it is even possible to have an unplanned pregnancy. Sex multiple times a day through ovulation week and it still took us 3 months for the first. Only birth control for the 3 years before we started trying were condoms.

That is incredible. For the time that it ended up working, how did you f*'ck her?

Did you hear the saying about The Village? Well, it all starts a little earlier than that.
So, you are upset that your parents didn't love you before you were conceived? I don't get it.
Really, almost better than a somewhat soulless planned birth. I had a grad school friend who was concerned that, when she graduated, she would have a hard time getting a job because employers would just assume that she would quickly leave to start a family. So she decided that she could have a baby over winter break of our last year, she could "get to know it" before school resumed in January and then her mother would take over childcare until graduation. (Her husband was already working in a high pressure job.) The wives of the other students were jealous of her because she had no morning sickness the whole pregnancy. She almost made it, too. I think she had two finals left to do before she went into labor. No word about whether the baby, now very much an adult in a big job, put on her resume that she attended the grad program "in utero." My classmate went on to have three more children. :)
Or, as my pregnant daughter complained to her sister, "This baby needs to be born NOW. I'm almost running out of the work that I brought home with me."
Older brother was an accident. I was planned so he would have someone to interact with since parents never wanted kids. Which is their exact words, we never wanted kids. Been 15+ years since I have had any communication.
I think you need to reconsider your frame of mind. Regardless of the circumstances in which you were born it doesn’t make you any more or less viable of a human or beyond finding love in the world. I assume the biggest issue with your relationship to them is they must’ve turned out to be bad parents too if you haven’t spoken in 15 years?
My girlfriend and I don’t want kids but if it happened we both intend on being the best parents we can be.
Some parents have unintended kids and end up being great parents, some have intended kids and end up being trash parents, and everything in between.
We had a mistake but she turned out lovely. Wifie and I are both into anal exclusively and on the rare occasion the front was visited by error, she got pregnant. It happens.
The BroJos' mom made a series of mistakes. First, not living in a state that actually respects women. Second, marrying George H.W. Bush's lapdog ballwasher errand boy. And third, not breaking out the coathanger when everyone's heads were turned.

Who plans for kids? Often women over age 35. Globally, women around age 18 to 28 have the most kids. Married or not, most are not "planned."
I’m pretty sure that I was as well. Catholic parents that used rhythm as their birth control method. I was the 9th boy in a family of 11. I have 1 sister and 9 brothers. Yes, my sister was #11.
False. I think your parents wanted a girl.
And I don't think they were using the rhythm method. They were fu**king like rabbits. There are only a few days a month you can get pregnant and they did it at least 11 times. I'm jealous.

Average liberal white American family. No social ties, breaking off after 18, and discussions of shame. What a disgrace.
