False dilemma. They aren't the only foster parents in the world.

Try being a known bigot & teach in the USA. That shit doesn't even fly down here in the south.

No, because you are comparing a ward of the state with a natural child, legally not the same situation. That's the 4th time I've had to restate that in this thread.

Your post is formatted terribly on the other hand; by leaving out quotes altogether, I had to scroll up and down the page repeatedly in order to figure out who you were responding to, and which points you were talking about.
There is a reason we use quotes here.
I couldn't parse it all when I was trying to respond, sorry. Kept breaking the quotes. Feel free to clean it up if you'd like.
