1. So if you definitively do not think the scenario presented above (stable home, 2 parents) is the ideal scenario, then what do you think would be a better scenario?
2. You then said there might be far better ways to raise children than in a stable home with 2 parents. What are your ideas/theories on what ways might be far better?
(I have numbered these to show that they are two separate questions addressing your two sentences. If you could answer them both, that would greatly help me understand your views. Thank you.)
1. I don't have any idea.
2. I have none.
At least for now.
This should be a lot more straight forward.
You are saying you believe the number of children people are allowed to have should be controlled, and that this should be done by restricting the number of children allowed to be born.
Can you elaborate on how the government should go about dictating the number of children being born, and how the government would reinforce this law?
Thanks so much!
I don't know. I am not a statesmen nor an expert in the matter. You would have to ask one.
You're welcome!
Fair enough, thanks!

You're ignoring the context of what happened, when I clearly provided it to you and you may go and check what I said. I will repeat myself. She asked my opinion on something while misquoting what I actually said and then putting words in my mouth which I never actually said. She tried to make me sound as though I said something else than what I really said. Then she kept pressuring me until I expounded on my initial views. Opon my doing that she dismissed my opinions altogether. I think this is unforgiveable. If you think not, then I'll keep it in mind and do the same thing to you, just so you can see what it's like, deal?
I understand if you don't want to forgive me, but I do hope you believe me when I say that I did not "put words in your mouth" or "misquote you" on purpose. I had simply misunderstood what you had said and was asking for further clarification, as needed.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
