  • I'd throw it away. And if anyone protest I'll give that child to that protester.

    Throw it away? I dunno. Such a human being would be in custody/incarcerated. I would simply cut off all ties. Distance myself/disavow and move on. I could not love such a person..even one that I was responsible for having been born. I cannot love a monster. I cannot love a person who is a degenerate/depraved/evil.  Not possible! Thank you for your reply BABB and Happy Wednesday! :)

  • Hypothetical question: If your son were imprisoned for 20 years for rape and murder, would you never visit him in prison? 
    What if he were incarcerated for a white collar offence, say embezzlement on a large scale?

    Thank you for your reply Karen. So if Hitler were your son you would always love him? I know it's stretching the point. I would distance myself/disavow the person and cut off all ties. I could not love a monster Karen. I could not. I am not built to do that. Thank you for your reply and Happy Wednesday! :)

    DING-DING-DING!  That's my son. He requires all kinds of medication to keep him somewhat civil. We still love him anyway, he is a keeper. This post was edited by B.H.Wilson at October 24, 2016 7:18 PM MDT

    So if your son were Adolf Hitler you would still love him? Different strokes bh. If your child were a depraved/degenerate/evil person your love would not be diminished at all? What would be there to love exactly?  Thank you for your reply! :)
