Chose to have a career instead of a family? Need to have IVF as a single woman who needs sperm donation to conceive? That's ok, the child will be brought up by family. Not a father and a mother, but any old friends of the mother just lying around.<br />This country used to have standards when it came to what it considered family, now even single women can have taxpayer funded IVF to conceive children! Way to go with increasing the number of people receiving benefits!<br />If all of these single women are so successful that we need more of them, how come they're unable to maintain a relationship with another human being long enough to conceive and how come they can't afford to pay for the treatment themselves???<br />The re-framing of the definition of family is all so they can shift the goal posts and claim "I grew up in a normal family". No, your parents were divorced. You grew up in a broken home. Live with it, get over it and make sure you don't do the same to your children.<br />If she really thinks that it's all so happy, then why don't parents divorce and remarry every ten years. Imagine just how happy a great big interspersed family would be. Every day would be filled with rainbows and all the other half-brothers and sisters, errr OTHER brothers and sisters could ride around on step-daddy number three's unicorn!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-45373769723575438942014-06-01T02:58:59.023+10:002014-06-01T02:58:59.023+10:00You might be interested in this recent post on The...You might be interested in this recent post on The Family Matrix at Public Discourse: <br /><br />http://www.thepublicdiscourse.com/2014/05/13063/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-21569507229098391252014-05-31T09:51:42.944+10:002014-05-31T09:51:42.944+10:00Family is what servers me.

So, truth must serve the self.cecilhenryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06295507329028875050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-51116901671436669692014-05-31T01:32:09.419+10:002014-05-31T01:32:09.419+10:00This is the inevitable consequence of the creation...This is the inevitable consequence of the creation and definition of relationships based on emotions rather than on traditional historical bloodlines.

They start a new relationship, they move to another town, and you just gradually lose contact. The point of family is that the relationships should endure even when that happens.dfordoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02306293859869179118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-62299990554983467062014-05-29T13:23:14.447+10:002014-05-29T13:23:14.447+10:00Well, she has to cling to something.

So she's found a way to tell herself that, somehow, there is still a bridge to her rainbow's-end of sensing comfort and security... that there is still a real family for her and people like her.Lastangonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6832901.post-69648737764066624562014-05-29T03:40:41.366+10:002014-05-29T03:40:41.366+10:00The point is to completely strip natural human rel...The point is to completely strip natural human relation away from people. It's a chimera. By removing any natural relations and forcing people to rely solely on affinity, a permanent sort of insecurity is achieved, with comfort and security only fleeting moments created by consumption.<br /><br />With the population fully atomized and utterly insecure, state institutions are all that one has, and their very structure means one can never feel really loved or secure except through constantly consuming the products those institutions demand you work to afford.

And really, I don't think she is trying to define family but rather trying to emphasize the importance of one type of association over another. It's all about the Leftist project of reducing the importance of "the other". Lol, you see Liberals everywhere and I see Leftists.CamelCaseRobnoreply@blogger.com
