Even in the West with progressive gender roles and access to birth control, 37% of children are unintended. You’re really going to sit here and ask “why did this woman sit down and decide to intentionally try for a baby during the war?” As if you can’t think of any other possibilities?

Should we really stop caring for children if they’re not planned? Should we judge people for accidentally or intentionally having a baby in a situation we have never experienced? Maybe everyone should ask you before having sex so that you can bestow your wisdom on them. Then finally everyone can have your mature, complete understanding of human reproduction. That way they can all make the same great choices you do!

Weak sauce.
