I have posted about this before in a different thread, but it bears repeating because it is very relevant to this thread topic.
I have a female friend (English, btw) whose younger sister is actually her daughter and doesn't know it. My friend's father raped and impregnated her when she was aged 11. She gave birth whilst she was still 11. My friend's parents decided that my friend would deliver the baby girl and that they would raised the baby as my friend's "sister."
My friend's "sister"/daughter, now aged 20, is perfectly normal and completely unaware of the circumstances of her conception and birth. But my friend is anything but normal. She has suffered from co-morbid mental illnesses since childhood. She is functional only because she takes a daily regimen of psychotropic medications with physically draining side effects. Even with all the meds, she is a very deeply troubled person. |
I know her as well. The tragedy of this situation is that, increasingly, jurisdictions are requiring that this information be given to the child. Modern medicine has already learned that the single greatest predictor of health, or its opposite, is genetics. So, for example, in California there are persuasive incentives to have a newly born child DNA-tested within 6-months. Unfortunately, the child’s right to know is combined with the child’s grief at learning the truth.

You don't know her at all.
She is my personal friend in real life, her identity is not publicly known and she has never posted in any forum.
Why do you make up such bald lies?

I know her very well. You are trying to deny it because you forgot that I am here as well, and you have made a disclosure that is not so private now (but which you knew I know about). I am not telling who it is. I am no threat to her. I am simply saying I know who it is and I agree with you.
You are drinking, myron. Go to bed. Talk to ya in the morning. |

You are the one that's drinking -- and lying -- unless you are referring to your daughter. |

Non issue, .0001 % of the case. |
How about checking out the origin of this thread Mr non issue?
I was answering a question.
We work on proven statistics here by the way. |
Lets revisit the quote you're crying about:
| Quote: |
no, but again, another non issue, incredibly irrelivant in the scope of abortion numbers.
BTW, I'm for abortion, but just pointing out weak arguments that keep getting thrown out there regarding rape. |
A. Looks like I support abortion
B. Looks like I agree women shouldn't have to suffer having a rapists baby.
You're corrections are irrelivant / emotional reactions. Facts are facts. |

I am convinced that Fred is a commercial product of FF, set loose on the threads to make things stimulating and interesting. We all respond as if he is a real person, but he's like one of those life-sized, blow-up, naked dolls that you take to bachelor parties. He's all fun and games, but he eventually pops, has to get patched up, and he's back for the next event.  That's why you find yourself in the same, repetitive damn argument, day-after-day-after-day.  |

I'm so awed and impressed by your new butch persona, G&P !
Can I be your official stalker - after all, KiltyCol has that old reprobate Alf stalking him all over the forum - and we can't let Alfie have all the fun, can we ?
