Yes. Self governing.
I know this is a difficult concept for you to believe, but I don't want to see a law against abortion. I want to see people willing to cease abortion without being coerced to. I want people to take up their responsibilities without the government mandating anything.
You seem to think that because you want your idealogy enforced by the government, everyone else does as well.
Roe v Wade is bad law. It's not an accurate reflection of the Constitution. Repealing it wont make abortion illegal. It will just return the issue to the states and the people where it belongs and keep the Federal government out of it completely.
If you've bothered reading my posts, you'd also see that I havent condemned any single mothers. Quite the opposite. Ive been condemning the deadbeats who abandon them. No one can claim to be a man and abandon his responsibilities for his children and the woman he should have waited until marriage for. He is an immature child and will be until he steps up and does what needs to be done.
I am also pointing out that we need to stop encouraging parents to go it alone by choice. If marriage is an option, it should encouraged. If adoption is an option, it should be encouraged.
We as a society need to stop destroying any chance our children have because we are unwilling to face the truth and change our lives where necessary for their sake.
Sorry to butt in Avie,but as someone who is looking from the outside in......if I may say
Some Americans need government interference,take your wontan spending and debt factor which is truely horrendous........I think you are a really nice person and enjoy your posts......I would ask you after reading above.
Children in what you are espousing as a "NORMAL' family situation with a Mom and Pop,are often scarred for life if the parents have a break down in their relationship and it becomes violent !!!!! THIS IS NOT A SUITABLE ENVIOMENT TO BRING CHILDREN UP IN............I can see that like me you are happy in your life but it just isn't fair to assume its good for everyone.....by the divorce rates IT CLEARLY ISN'T.
BUT FOREMOST THE CHILDREN ARE TO BE TOP PRIORITY IN THIS SITUATION.
I agree a lot of men are a waste of space and no-hopers but it is always the women married or unmarried that carry the burden........I am really quite shocked that a person hoping to become the President of the United States could even think like this........attacking the vaunerable and those that have no way to respond or reply........It's cheap,these are not worthy men in any way,I just don't understand how a decent person like you and others allow them to get away with this type of banality continually.?????????????
And I know personally how a single Mom can to a degree and her children be treated in a sometimes negative way through no fault of their own.
This is horrible abuse and I think it's a disgrace.....a society is judged by how they treat the less fortunate........Americans FAIL THE FUNDIMENTAL TEST......but the irony is,here they are nastily critisizing one section of society yet they themselves are a parasites, due to the loans secured to allow them basically to keep their standard of living.....who just do they think they are.....yep a lot of mouthy ignorant Americans are a waste of space,greedy,gluttons and nasty to other members of society........you shock jocks are often a manifestation of this hiedious type of American.
Avie there is little kindness in your America at times......WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO YOU ALL.steve
