I was raised by a single mother who was a waitress during the evening hours. The fact is that I am from a situation where some mothers abort their kid.
And no, I don't think I would have been better off dead than not being born at all.

LOL I was definitly not born with a silverspoon. I've just seen first hand what what can happen when 2 people arent ready to sacrifice the next 18 years of their life for the well being of a child. If the kid is brought into the world as unplanned or with just a small feeling of resentment, those feelings can multiply over the years, blame is used for ones unhappiness, that unhappiness
is like a cancer that eventually consumes the whole family. Mom and dad split the kid grows up with no adult guidance because mom is working all the time. Dad starts skipping his weekends. The kid is basically left to fend for themselves, usually hanging with other kids in the same situation, remember, water seeks its own level. A bored kid with no support system at home is a recipe for disaster. Statistics have proven this.
From the momment that child is born 'till the momment they leave the house, its the parents job to prepare that kid for the rest of its life. Im sure my point of view isn't always popular but I think its one we would all want
our parents to have had.
