  • “I refuse to be just another person doing something because of chemicals and biology.”

    Then I’ve got some bad new for you. Everything you do is because of chemicals and biology. You felt the need to post this dumbass comment because of chemicals and biology. Everything that you have ever done and ever will do are because of chemicals in your brain telling you to do things. You will never outsmart these chemicals because you are these chemicals.

    For all intents and purposes, they are magical feelings that come out of nowhere and make you feel happy and patient and full of love for your child.

    Something which you clearly don’t understand at all, which only serves to further prove my original point, so I guess thank you?



  • Another strawman argument. I never said anything about biology. Adoptive parents are still parents. Your siblings are still your siblings.

    It’s still different than a child someone considers as “not theirs”.

    And btw you were a child, you weren’t ready for that kind of responsibility and shouldn’t have had to do those things, and I’m genuinely sorry that you had to experience that, and I’m glad your siblings had someone in their life to look out for them. I’m sure that made all the difference to them.







  • Holding someone else’s child is completely different from holding your own child that you created and gave life to. OP has never held their own child, and therefore cannot possibly say that pet ownership gives them the same satisfaction.

    Op is talking about holding their pet, an experience they have had, and holding their child, an experience they have not had. Therefore they absolutely cannot try to compare the two.

    All OP can say is that having pets gives them the same enjoyment as holding someone else’s baby, which is most likely absolutely true. But that’s not what was said. They tried to equate pet ownership to bringing and nurturing a life into this world and I’m sorry but that’s fucking ridiculous, period.
