I get that the topic evokes a lot of emotions, but I don’t understand why the reasons are offensive, are we not all making the beat decisions we can with what information we have?
For some there might be reasons and considerations more important than granting their offspring a life without strife (and thus make different moral judgements). I’m not trying to judge one choice over the other, I’m curious as to why the topic gets so personal and passionate even with people who otherwise are level-headed and well reasoned.
Yeah, I’ve gathered that the topic is contentious, but I don’t understand why.
Just as child free persons have their reasons, most parents probably have theirs, be it conscious, normative, or pressured. And at least to me, the discussion is about the choice and reasons, rather than any judgement.
I was hoping not to stir the pot, but to get a better understanding on why there’s such heated feelings.
