Why do people act like having kids and giving birth is a miracle?

Thanks for sharing.

People humping and then shitting their useless resource-sucking spawn into the world is no miracle, agreed. Why folks think it's something special is a mystery.

Well, you can't do it.

What if you have trouble getting a child and then finally get one? That would make you feel like it's a miracle.

My sister had a healthy daughter after two miscarriages and considers that a miracle.

I look at it from a odds perspective.

All of the random human encounters that had to occur in history, your lineages alignment just right...just to produce......you!

A personal example is I owe my immediate existence to polio. My father's sister died from it before he was born. My grandparents lived in the depression and would not have had my father if my aunt had lived.

Simple things like that...many more examples like this that can be linked to MY existence before grandparents are lost in time...(like tears in the.... rain)😆

So a new life, just from a odds perspective, is indeed a miracle.

After 8 rounds of IVF and a decade of being on an emotional rollercoaster, the arrival of our daughter did seem miraculous, but you’re right, it’s not, it’s just biology.

It’s still the best feeling in the world though.

This thread just gave me a headache.

Everything is subjective. There is NO "it's either this way or that way."

What may be a "miracle" to some, may be mundane to another.

Speaking of trolling parents, I occasionally like to say "Babies are stupid" and engage those that take me seriously in debate.
