Why do people classify babies as "gifts" and possessions, and not individual unique souls? I don't understand women who call their babies "gifts". They have a unique DNA sequence just like grown folks, and they are just little folks in training. They are not a possession, they are little ones we have to guide through life since we either brought them here, or adopted them. Why do people refer to babies this way? Like they are a puppy or a kitten or a chupacabra, or something? baby latina> Actually, you smal minded ingrate, I have TWO children. I guess I'm a bad mother because I do not refer to my kids as possessions like they are some toy poodle or something. Expand your feeble mind a little bit. People think different things. my bad, that should read "small". Cookies-n-cream> Yada yada yah. If thinking (utilizing my brain to process ideas, hypotheses, and variables in life and situations) makes me go against the "grain" then so be it. I am honored to go against insane mainstream thought. It's one of my goals in life. Thank you.
