    Parents have abdicated their responsibility to their children because our greedy society dictates it must be so.

    Hey, no offence, but fuck you. Not all of us have done so; I go to work while my fiancée stays at home to look after our daughter. It's *hard*, we never have enough money, but we do it, because we believe that it's better for her that way.
