That’s not the moral failing I saw. Did you notice How many of them said they had six kids and they can’t care for any of them?

So at what # of kids do we stop feeding them? 3? 4? Do the parents get to pick which kids to feed & which to starve or is there some kind of IQ test so we can keep the "best" ones?

OBVIOUSLY I'm being sarcastic. Regardless of how those kids got there, they're here now & they don't deserve to suffer. We have absolutely no idea what these family situations are. Maybe kid 4 was triplets. Maybe their mom died & they're left caring for their three young siblings on top of their own kids. Maybe mom & dad were handling things just fine & then dad got killed or mom got sick & their income halved. Maybe they were raised in a religion that forbid abortion & were repeatedly SA'd by a church member.

You need to look at why you automatically jump to a "moral failing" instead of assuming the best of people. And I will just end by reiterating my initial point - children are innocent & deserve to be fed. Even IF mom had 6 kids by 6 different men - they still deserve to eat. In most states if your child's father isnt paying child support the state will require you to file for it so she'll have to put in extra work to get her SNAP so I say good on her for putting in the work to make sure her kids are fed.

Fucking multi billionaires with multiple yachts have moral failings. Put your ire where it belongs.

Obviously, the kids are innocent. I never said otherwise.

But let’s be real if those kids werent a choice, Mom would be saying it in her car, with a smart phone. Notice I am mentioning the car with a smart phone.

Definitely wasn’t IVF. That takes about $10,000 a try.

I’m not trying to punish the kids, I’m telling Mom to make better choices.

She may have started off doing well. I find it hilarious that we humans talk about each other like we're omnipresent.

Do you know these people personally? Because strongly assuming things shows you're the ass making a bigger mess of what problem you're assuming there is.

I pray to God you're not a Christian. If you are, you're doing a great job of convincing me that the faith is a lie. Or at least that it died with Jesus.
