Having said that, if you create a human being that goes on to live to 70-90 years, you are solely responsible for them until your death. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Zorque@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) So the kids aren't responsible for themselves? But honestly, this is all besides the point. The issue is that people need that assistance to even have a chance at buying a home. Not that there's parents with the means and empathy to help provide for their children. Trying to imply the blame is on the parents instead of the system thats been created is misinformation at its finest. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Echo71Niner@lemm.ee -3 points 2 years ago In a world where everything runs pn money, if parents didn't teach their kids how to make money before they are abandoned financially at 18, then those parents didn't do a good job and in fact failed them. They brought them into this world, so they should have helped them learn how to make and handle money in this world that's all about money. They wouldn't have had to struggle with the "system" they knew about before having them. permalink fedilink source parent
