Define "a lot".
So you chose to have a child with a loser and the rest of society foots the bill. Why should I or anyone pay for your fuck up?
How punative a society do we live in?
Do we punish women who make wrong decisions about who they love? Do we take out our frustrations on the children?
Do we put them out in the streets? Is it the role of society to punish people for their relationship mistakes anjd make an example of them?
Is it the role of society to INTENTIONALLY enable people to make poor decisions that may result in pounishment of their children?
You like the idea of giving a teenaged girl reason to bring a child into a life of poverty, irresponsible parenting, etc?
I think it is irresponsible fo society to enable poor decision makers to make pooor decisions.
You dont?
Do we take a Dickensonian view towards unsupported children? What punative steps do you want to take against women who have made poor choices in their men?
My view is that Americans care about their people. We do not discard them because they have made a mistake or are in need of assistance. Americans give a helping hand to those who need it, we don't punish them because we do not agree with their choices
