    Your example is absurd and hyperbolic on purpose and in so purposed it fails miserably.

    It assumes:

    • Becoming a parent is inherently reckless
    • The risk of harming a child is obvious and extreme
    • People could easily avoid the situation entirely
    • Harm is probable, not merely possible

    You’re position is ridiculous. I’m not going to engage with you on this topic as it is clear your position is emotional and not based on reason.

    Have a nice day.

    • It is neither absurd nor hyberbolic to argue from a position which assumes that becoming a parent is inherently reckless, harmful, and avoidable. You simply don’t agree with such a perspective- that doesn’t make your position the “reasonable” one and the other “emotional.” I’d like to challenge you to refute the position with reason, but I don’t think you can, and I think that scares you
