I’m stumped
There are a few things that really stump me. It’s so difficult to understand why parents won’t immunize their children. That seems negligent if not abusive.
It is really hard to understand parents who put anti-abortion posters in their child’s hands at family events. The child most likely would prefer to enjoy the event rather than carry a gory poster of a fetus. Not only is that abuse in my opinion but it is offense to others. Protest all you want but not at family events.
Finally, why don’t some people realize climate change is a real problem? And if you don’t believe, is it possible to accept that it might be real and at least help support attempts to save our planet? Is it the “abusive, negligent” parents who don’t believe in climate change because they really don’t care about their child’s future?
Many people are starting to understand just what a liar “the Donald” is and has been for years (e.g., he knows nothing about WikiLeaks). He doesn’t believe climate is a true problem and in fact has passed policies that will negatively impact our environment. These include decreasing the size of national parks and drilling for oil in places that should not be drilled.
I would be less stumped if people would at least keep an open mind. Please try.
