        A lot harder to agree with this statement when the abortion laws have regressed so much so recently.

          Accidents can happen, but if you use two contraceptive methods in tandem, it severely reduces the risk of pregnancy. It’s not impossible, it just needs one to be a responsible adult. And, obviously, we should be more vocal about sex education.

            I hear you, And heck even pull out is pretty effective. Mix that with one actual contraceptive and you’re basically golden. Unintended pregnancies aren’t that hard to avoid.

            I still think your comment sucks. Basically implies poor people don’t deserve to have children, and the literal driving force of our species should be reserved as a luxury for people who can afford to have one adult not work.

          A cop out is when an adult skirts responsibility by saying “society is fucked, how could I ever be responsible for taking real care of my own chuldren??”. Again. If you can’t, use protection, don’t have kids. Society is fucked, yes, but adults must be responsible.
