IC, again can you provide any kind of backing for your claim? There might be a few people who create children and give them up and into the system shrug But far more people have their children taken away because they can’t/refuse to take care of the kids. At least this is of the case for three different couples I know.
Again, your point about people who don’t take care of their parents/grandparents is, what? I could care less who and why people do it. Karma is a bitch.
A “right” is something given to you by our creator. I hate wiki but it has a few times where it can be useful. “Natural rights are right not contingent upon the laws, customs, or beliefs of any particular culture or government, and therefore universal and inalienable.” A right to life is one of those rights, for example.
Sorry buddy, I asked long before you made your claim. I will be happy to tell you the country I visited for a semester if you quit playing your games. Do I still live there? Take a look at my AVI. I currently reside in Phoenix, AZ at least for the next six months.
As a side not, I am not editing this quote yet because it is providing a perfect example of why I quote the way I do. We have responded to each others posts, who said what and when can be easily identified. Even if someone else were to join the conversation, it can be easily identified. I laugh because some will be driven nuts by the fact I am showing a different way to post. I literally GOL ; )

It’s not at all uncommon for a person to have multiple children they give up for adoption. Many are also left at hospitals and signed into the foster-care system. It’s not talked about because it’s “not your problem”.
There are also plenty of people who aren’t taking care of their grandparents.
However, I have the impression you have no idea what I mean by the word “right” in this argument. So let’s start there. What do you consider to be the “rights” of the elderly that have to be respected by those related to them who can care for them?
Before I answer your question about what country I’m from, why don’t you go ahead and tell me which country you were referring to as amazingly progressive for outlawing abortion? Do you still live there?

What country are you from IC? How old are you? Are you a native speaker? What is your level of education you are trying to reach? I ask because this might explain your ineptitude.
And please try and find me someone who is pro-life AND they want to take away the rights of the elderly. The weakest portions of societies will loose their rights before a society collapses. With newborns losing their rights, the next step will be the senior citizens.
You can force people to be responsible. That can and should be done! How many babies can a woman and man create before they actually realize the acts/wrongs they are doing? Can you think of why there are never any stories about couples who just have sex and create lots of babies and give each one up for adoption? Why would those stories never exist?

If you paid attention, you’d realize that you’re switching sides here. I’m actually for paying for the elderly; it’s your camp that wants to take that away. I’m for paying for government charities; once again, it’s the anti-abortion group that generally stands against these programs that you’re now suddenly advocating in light of my argument. I also personally take responsibility for all of my family, but you know as well as I do that I’m not required to by law and wouldn’t be punished if my grandparent died because I didn’t attend to them.
Here’s the sad truth, which everyone arguing against pro-choice already knows: you cannot force someone to be a good parent. They can make life but they may not take care of it. They might choose to release all rights to it. Simply creating it doesn’t mean that you’re going to take care of it. We don’t hold the creator responsible if they choose to give up their rights to their creation.[/quote]
