Right, so don't blame the women. (Sorry if it sounds like I am blaming the
men).

I agree. The whole idea of anti population has a very negative anti life
aspect to it.

I also think it is a problem that child bearing, child rearing is considered to
be a low status occupation.

Frankly, I think that some women are too stupid to make good mothers. Stupid
women make very poor relationship choices, they have difficulty taking care of
themselves, and they neglect their children.

Part of the problem is that 'neglected' children are often called 'unwanted
children'. 'Unwanted children' are really the neglected offspring of parents
too incompetent to take care of them.

Give a child to a mother of normal intelligence who swears up and down that she
does want a baby. And 9 out of 10 of them will raise happy healthy children.

But you give a child to a mother with an IQ of 80, who thinks that having a kid
is really cool. And everyone who sees the situation will shake their head and
say 'that poor unwanted child'.
