You challenged my claim? No, you said, "So what?" That's not a challenge, as much as it is an opinion that doesn't even address the point I had already made, which was why I made the comment that you don't seem to be able to appreciate the perspectives of other people. And then you added later "I wasn't referring to other people" which demonstrates that either you didn't read carefully to know that's who I was talking about, or that you are trying to spin the words.
And, you're wrong. For many people, expense is a very valid reason. Some adults believe that without having the necessary funds to care for and support a child the way they believe is necessary will choose not to have children yet, perhaps never.
Ad hominem is not an argument. It shows you lack an argument.
I wasn't referring to other people.
What about you?
Try reading more carefully. My whole series of comments is about representing other people who are not wired like you and me. You didn't see that?
It's like you go around trying to nitpick and find things to twist and demean. Get a life.
I have 4. And I would have more if I were not already too old.
Ignore him, he's a jerk
I appreciate that.
You are the one who demeaned me.
I simply challenged your claim that "it is expensive" as an excuse and not a valid reason.
You then told me that I do not have the ability to understand other people's perspectives.
So, take a good look in the mirror when you throw out attacks like you did.
