> Abortion and adoption is realistic options for possible children

Abortion, ok.

But do you mean putting your own, healthy kids up for adoption???

Why not? It is an option if career and lifestyle is more important.

Few people are that callous.

And there are different degrees of "more important". "Throwing the kids away" is a super extreme measure few would take.

I hate it when during internet discussions, suddenly the other side slides on a slippery slope all the way to Level 99.

Let me guess.

Your single without children?

Even if Ekaros is single without children, I don't see how one can grow up in a society without understanding how difficult it would be for a parent to give up their child.

Adoption may be the best option for some people in some situations. I can imagine that. But presenting it as an obvious solution to this problem indicates a glaring gap in their understanding of human beings.
