I know no one will probably see this comment, but I felt the need to share this. My great, great, great grandfather, Matsukata Masayoshi, was against this practice himself and created an orphanage in Beppu meant for children who would have been killed from infanticide, mabiki. The orphanage was a great success, and tens of babies who would have been killed at birth grew up into strong, healthy children. The children of the orphanage actually grew up to be stronger and healthier than other children, and so many families adopted the children.
That’s heartwarming! Bless him, all it takes is one person deciding to do the right thing. I wonder how many of those kids were adopted by their own parents after they successfully grew up healthy.

I liked that you mentioned that multiple civilizations practiced the ancient art of baby killing. The first Mabiki video reminded me of what the Spartans did. If a baby did not meet their standards they left it on a hill outside the city to die. Often times a slave would find the baby and raise it, and then the abandobed Spartan baby would become a slave for other Spartans. Something like 1/3 of Spartan slaves were rejected Spartans.
Christianity took over the Roman Empire mostly because Christians not only did not expose their own children, but also rescued children exposed by pagans.
And also get rid of the stigma surrounding getting a helping hand to keep getting food and a decent place to stay, since mabiki continued even when the welfare coffers opened because they would rather kill their baby than "get a handout"
@Reinhard von Lohengramm The reason poor people tend to have more kids usually has to do with 1) culture and 2) lack of access to education and birth control. It's not universal but it does affect it. To be honest though you will be hard pressed to find a family in the US with more than 4 kids per household even among the poor. Homes with more kids are usually like that because of religion or just because the couple wants to. That's just my impressions though.
Yeah like that quicerful movement? Poly Mormons? And even though my family fee gens ago were poor but got back staple middle class (grandma & grandpa raised 9 kids one of them my dad) each now grown up siblings had 1-2 kids except for my uncle a womanizer had 3 scattered kids. The other alcoholic uncle now reaching his 60s had 3 kids this was in the Philippines yet the rest. 2-3 siblings did not have children and meanwhile my dad and I only daughter won’t raise kids as the costs of living be medical, housing, education, everyday expenses and debts been hard and playing smart as all of the fam college graduates won’t risk big families
@Reinhard von Lohengramm Rather than low impulse control I think the way poor people are raised and the way they live makes them more likely to have kids. Living in poverty or just poorer is a cycle that's hard to escape for many reasons. It's very nuanced I think, and hard to succinctly describe it. My views are a bit more complex since I originally commented on this video too.
Japan: *Grown ups work all day and night and have no time to have babies* Japan's population: *Shrinks once again* Japan: Why is this happening again, guys, and why are our grown up serv.... we mean people suddenly start dying?!!?!??!!??!?!?! I'm going to every hell for this.
And now people in Japan don't have the time or finances for babies because there's so much pressure on working constantly until you're so exhausted you get physically ill.
As a mother, I just cant comprehend looking at a newborns face after feeling it move and giving birth. Now a toddler? I can TOTALLY understand the temptation to send it back...and demand a refund.
I love imagining the top scholars of the time getting around a round kotatsu and passionately arguing how to increase the population: Bobunaga: we need to stop old people dying! That way the population will stay stable! Jonunaga: how about we just stop killing our kids?

@@McSnezzly lol, what is that based on? the Japanese government is very much concerned with the health of their people. its the people themself that subscribe to a culture that is self destructive.
@@downey2294 I think is the culture when it comes to work and relationships. For example, you must be introduced to others by a mutual mostly and the work culture keeps people mostly cooped in their jobs more than half of their life. So they have little time to socialize and find a lover to make babies with. As an effect they go on the simulation technology to fill that gap on their lives.
But women, especially in the western world, think abortion is some sort of contraceptives. Even saying it's just a blob of cells. Around 300,000-800,000 abortion per year in USA.
Oh man, when you said “They dabbled in it to prove they were edgy” I laughed way too hard. Love your sense of humor. The old Japanese artwork is way more interesting than anything from Europe at the same time. That baby afterlife of them murdering their Mabiki moms was intense.
A spirit who just got mabikied 3 times in a row and is being reborn again: "Well that sucked, but maybe this family will keep me and cherish me with all their hea-" Mother: "Watch me yeet this lil turd" Spirit: "Aww shit, here we go again..."
The technological development of effective contraceptives essentially ends the law of supply and demand (aka the law of dead babies), as a law which justifies economic stratification.
I'm afraid that's a popular misconception, manufactured by the birth control industry and the eugenics movement. Tell millions of people that if they swallow a pill or wear a condom they can have all the sex they want without any pregnancies, you're going to have a LOT more sex happening than before ... and as a result more unwanted babies than ever before (because birth control is never 100% effective and people using birth control are not mentally prepared to be parents). That's why the rise in modern abortion followed the rise in the proliferation of birth control.
@@DCAreaAntiAbortionAdvocacy I used to say the same poorly sourced nonsense. hell I used to believe Planned Parenthood was a satanic cabal of baby murders. But the "pro-life" movement is so full of lies and bs I can't take any of you people seriously. See I took history in college and studied the political rise of fascism and socialism in Europe in the 20th century and know from the horses mouth that they wanted to do away with abortion and all forms of birth control because they wanted cannon fodder for their endless wars. It's not theory, it's not hyperbole.
@@JacquesLapeyre Both movements are full of lies. Pro birth and pro life. They're both propaganda, trying to push the extremes of both viewpoints. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Abortion is a necessary evil in certain circumstances, but don't make the mistake of thinking it isn't a tragedy. Because it still is tragic, just as miscarrigages are tragic. The only difference between an abortion and miscarriage is how wanted the child was. Which doesn't sit well with me. I've convinced in a few decades frivolous abortion will be treated in the same scorn as infant killing is today in most countries. Abortion should be saved for medical, rape, and age related reasons.
@@cortster12 I think abortion should be like a Spidey save: everybody gets one. No questions asked, if you need an abortion, go get one. If you want another one, it has to be for medical reasons or rape. Even if it isn't, you can still have your second abortion, but if it wasn't due to medical or rape, you also get a tubal ligation. We have fewer unwanted babies, but we still work towards more personal responsibility. The whole concept of doing whatever you want without accountability being equated with freedom is pure childishness.
@cortster12 I think that the difference between abortion and miscarriage is another one: in an abortion, the offspring is intentionally killed, while in a miscarriage it spontaneously dies. It's the difference between being tripped on purpose or by accident. Miscarriages can happen in unwanted pregnancies, and abortions can be performed on wanted pregnancies. Comes to mind a story told by a nurse who used to work for Gosnell at an abortion facility. A teen pregnancy, incest at that. The mother and the grandmother wanted the girl to have an abortion, because they wanted to cover up the father. The teenager didn't want an abortion. She told the doctor. The doctor and the family insisted that that was best for her, pinned her down to perform it. Suddenly she got up and ran with the speculum still inside her and started to bleed. Ultimately the Dr decided he wasn't going to perform that one and that the girl needed to be taken to the ER.
In my place, this "practice" still existed in the 60s, but they usually spared the females and not the males. As always, thank you, that was very interesting! Also, that editing at 7:58 had me dying. x'D
Where are you from,if you don't mind telling? It's fascinating to hear that in your region girls were spared and not boys because in Asia generally (particularly where I am from,India) boys are considered more desirable and female infants are more likely to be killed/aborted.It is so much of a problem that the both India and China have laws in place to discourage from the practice and have regions with very skewed sex ratios.
@@HisameArtwork as an italian i can assure that baby killing was not that spread at all .Even since during fascist era , the italian criminal code for baby killing condemn the mother up to 12 years of jailtime and others to at least 21 years .catholic church considered it a capital sin, not forgivable
@@HisameArtwork definitely is not common in Italian culture. Boys and girls were both cared for. Traditional italians don't believe in abortion either. A baby was considered a blessing regardless and there were even laws where a rapist would have to support that child and mother.
Yes, I am Italian and I was referring to the small town in southern Italy where I was born. There was this sort of religious fear, of course, but during the post-war period, people had gotten into the habit of killing newborn babies to avoid starving to death. Females were considered more "valuable" than males because they had a better chance of marrying rich men. Eh, many of the old ladies I knew growing up only had sisters for that very reason. Absolutely not a common practice in Italy, I should have specified, pardon! -_-"
Yes. The punishments varied depending on the domain/region. Punishments were mostly light. Fines were common, from small to large. Severe punishments were rare, but included: - Demotion or removal from government office - Public shame. E.g. forehead tattoo, shaving mom's hair, shaving dad's eyebrows. - Banishment - Reducing the offender to "outcaste" status - One woman had her nose cut off (seems to be the worst punishment on record)
How do you think Christians took over the Roman Empire? Sure, conversions accounted for some of it, but mostly, it was Christians having children when pagans wouldn't, and Christians adopting children that pagans abandoned. Christians having more children overwhelmed any attempt by pagans to persecute them, to say nothing of the testimony of the martyrs winning converts faster than the persecutors could kill them.
ah yes, the one thing that can ever get politicians to care about something : If we don't do something there won't be anymore wage slaves and taxes revenues.
It's a great video and I hate to be so tangential. But handing out flyers and so on makes me wonder what the literacy rate was. People could read them? The literacy rate was high enough that you could do a popular campaign with Flyers? That alone is rather fascinating.
literacy in japan was really really high in some places. The average literacy rate varied in each prefecture, in some places it was 30% and in others up to 90%. Both numbers are really high for the period.
@@akai4942 thank you. That is very impressive. I'm quite certain it was not that hire in Europe. My understanding was that it was usually 10% or even less before at least 1800
@@iminyourwalls8309 Another thing for Europe is that reading in the common tongue was VERY common, upwards of about 50%.

I heard privately of German women killing their youngest during WW2. Sometimes they were the results of rape, but as it was hard enough to feed the children they had, and a baby would hinder the mother on either fleeing from or to somewhere and all the other survival stuff... I have never heard of official records though.
Wow. I thought the low Japanese birth rate was a relatively new phenomenon brought about by women entering the work force and grueling hours to make a living wage, but it turns out this is an issue they've dealt with for generations upon generations.
Speaking of mabiki reminds me of how in Ancient Greece what they did is if they had a baby in a household they would put a branch of bay at the front of the door if it was a boy, or a short piece of wool if it was a girl, but very often if they didn´t wanted the child they leave them at the door or at the entrance of a temple.
Seems many cultures had this problem. Mohammad also tried to run an anti-infanticide program that seemingly wasn't very successful until Uthman (the third Caliph after the death of Mohammad) took over because Uthman had the bright idea to actually provide food to families. There's a story of Uthman being in a mosque at night and hearing a child cry. He called out to the mother to ask why the baby was crying and she said she was trying to wean it because only weaned children received a food subsidy and she couldn't produce enough milk because she had no food. Uthman fell to his knees and cried out something like "How many babies blood is on my hands?!" He gave the woman all the money he had on him and immediately ordered that newborns also qualify for the subsidy. I'm fairly certain that Mesopotamia also had a problem with unwanted babies and that this is where many women who worked as temple priestesses came from. There was a lot written in the legal codes about the rights of sons, including adopted sons, to an education and care but there wasn't a lot written about the upkeep of girls. Giving girls who are given to a temple an inheritance is optional and she usually only has use of it for her lifetime before it reverts back to her brothers. Temple priestesses earned money through uh...the world's oldest profession. We have price lists for various positions and hymns like Ishtar Will Not Tire. There was probably always at least one priestess at a given temple who was lactating. Maybe families looked at giving their daughters to Ishtar as a more humane alternative to getting rid of them.

This is really no different from modern abortion though. They just didn't have the medical knowledge to do it before birth so they did it right after. At the end of the day nothing really changes.

"Even animals care for all of their young..." Yeah, no. Cats and dogs will just straight-up *eat* the runts to ensure that they and the stronger young will survive. It's the brutal logic of life.
Yep, rabbits will often eat their young if they have the slightest inkling the nest is under threat. Birds will abandon their nests if something disturbs it. Heck, the entire reproductive system of a marsupial literally evolved to allow a mother to voluntarily abort their offspring. (They give birth to partially developed foetus's, if something happens, such as an unexpected drought, the mother will kick the developing offspring out of the pouch to die, this is due to that marsupials evolved to cope with unpredicatable enviromental conditions). In nature, the parents often prioritise themselves as it's to their reproductive advantage to give up on an offspring and try again later when conditions are better, than waste resources on a hopeless cause. This human practice is very in keeping with the general behaviour of other mammals and birds.
“ People look down on couples because they have too many children” I think that idea still explain why most Japan family household has one child today.
Weird thing is that during Covid people got a child tax if they had kids which resulted in people well there being less abortions also for people to actually be able to keep their kids to the point on where people in adoption groups were complaining over the fact that they couldn’t adopt infants so even now like paying for people to keep their kids still works
I don't know if this is still true, but in Jpan when I was there, condoms and abortion were legal, but birth control pills were not. Of course this ledt o more abortions. I hope that this stupid law has been changed so that abortion can be reserved for a last resort situation, as it should be. It's not like women love it.
I came for the folk tails and stayed for the cool info This is genuinely amazing stuff to learn ! Morbid, but amazing Also, Hakata Bay if memory serves of the old vid?
It’s said that contraceptives becoming widely available is the reason infanticide became somewhat of a distant memory. Turns out, people are less likely to murder unwanted babies if they have the means to prevent pregnancy in the first place.
I feel miserable when I see people killing babies. Life is a bless not a curse. I lost 2 babies and I got depressed. Taking pills for a year. I just cannot understand how cold can be a person to do such a thing like abortion without remorse. 🤔🤔🤔
Im really sorry to hear about your loss. It must ve been really hard to get better after loosing a,child you wanted.... Regarding abortions maybe you should speak to someone who went through this. I know two people who had to and I can assure you neither of them did so lightly. I can see up close how it affects them years later and I'm grateful I never had to go through such choice. To you having a child is a blessing ..to me it would mean lifetime of hell. We are all different, ve different resources, healthcare, support etc. You ve a right to decide about your own fertility but ultimately that's the extent of it. I'd never dare to suggest to someone what to do re pregnancy I ve seen enough in my life to truly understand its not black and white choice rsp in countries where contraception is not free and widely available.
@@daringcow thank you very much for your words. Yeah we are all different indeed and when we see what is happening in the world, the wisest decision is not having a child. Or at least would be better to wait for a better time . The love of a mother grows before pregnancy and when the baby goes to heaven , the pain is unbearable. I think this is a reason I cannot understand people that abort.
Life maybe is a bless for you, but there are people outta there starving everyday, being misthreated, abused or raped by their own parents, enslaved, depressed and being shamed for it isntead of getting help. Do not think the world revolves around your point of view and that everyone has the same circumstances as you. There's a lot of people who just wish they'd never been born, me, for example.

I liked that you mentioned that multiple civilizations practiced the ancient art of baby killing. The first Mabiki video reminded me of what the Spartans did. If a baby did not meet their standards they left it on a hill outside the city to die. Often times a slave would find the baby and raise it, and then the abandobed Spartan baby would become a slave for other Spartans. Something like 1/3 of Spartan slaves were rejected Spartans.
They did that to my brother, Alexios, and I traveled across Greece looking for him after I learned he survived.
Christianity took over the Roman Empire mostly because Christians not only did not expose their own children, but also rescued children exposed by pagans.
Wow, it seems like nature selection at ancient time.
@@chinemapictures What are you talking about
Hahaha. Nice one, Kassandra!
Strange how having food and a decent place to live makes a couple want to keep their babies. Oh wait...some things never change.
And also get rid of the stigma surrounding getting a helping hand to keep getting food and a decent place to stay, since mabiki continued even when the welfare coffers opened because they would rather kill their baby than "get a handout"
The mayority of people today have more to eat and a more stable home than people back then...
@Reinhard von Lohengramm The reason poor people tend to have more kids usually has to do with 1) culture and 2) lack of access to education and birth control. It's not universal but it does affect it. To be honest though you will be hard pressed to find a family in the US with more than 4 kids per household even among the poor. Homes with more kids are usually like that because of religion or just because the couple wants to.
That's just my impressions though.
Yeah like that quicerful movement? Poly Mormons? And even though my family fee gens ago were poor but got back staple middle class (grandma & grandpa raised 9 kids one of them my dad) each now grown up siblings had 1-2 kids except for my uncle a womanizer had 3 scattered kids. The other alcoholic uncle now reaching his 60s had 3 kids this was in the Philippines yet the rest. 2-3 siblings did not have children and meanwhile my dad and I only daughter won’t raise kids as the costs of living be medical, housing, education, everyday expenses and debts been hard and playing smart as all of the fam college graduates won’t risk big families
@Reinhard von Lohengramm Rather than low impulse control I think the way poor people are raised and the way they live makes them more likely to have kids. Living in poverty or just poorer is a cycle that's hard to escape for many reasons. It's very nuanced I think, and hard to succinctly describe it.
My views are a bit more complex since I originally commented on this video too.

The technological development of effective contraceptives essentially ends the law of supply and demand (aka the law of dead babies), as a law which justifies economic stratification.
I'm afraid that's a popular misconception, manufactured by the birth control industry and the eugenics movement. Tell millions of people that if they swallow a pill or wear a condom they can have all the sex they want without any pregnancies, you're going to have a LOT more sex happening than before ... and as a result more unwanted babies than ever before (because birth control is never 100% effective and people using birth control are not mentally prepared to be parents). That's why the rise in modern abortion followed the rise in the proliferation of birth control.
@@DCAreaAntiAbortionAdvocacy I used to say the same poorly sourced nonsense. hell I used to believe Planned Parenthood was a satanic cabal of baby murders. But the "pro-life" movement is so full of lies and bs I can't take any of you people seriously. See I took history in college and studied the political rise of fascism and socialism in Europe in the 20th century and know from the horses mouth that they wanted to do away with abortion and all forms of birth control because they wanted cannon fodder for their endless wars. It's not theory, it's not hyperbole.
@@JacquesLapeyre Both movements are full of lies. Pro birth and pro life. They're both propaganda, trying to push the extremes of both viewpoints. The truth is somewhere in the middle. Abortion is a necessary evil in certain circumstances, but don't make the mistake of thinking it isn't a tragedy. Because it still is tragic, just as miscarrigages are tragic. The only difference between an abortion and miscarriage is how wanted the child was. Which doesn't sit well with me. I've convinced in a few decades frivolous abortion will be treated in the same scorn as infant killing is today in most countries. Abortion should be saved for medical, rape, and age related reasons.
@@cortster12 I think abortion should be like a Spidey save: everybody gets one. No questions asked, if you need an abortion, go get one. If you want another one, it has to be for medical reasons or rape. Even if it isn't, you can still have your second abortion, but if it wasn't due to medical or rape, you also get a tubal ligation. We have fewer unwanted babies, but we still work towards more personal responsibility. The whole concept of doing whatever you want without accountability being equated with freedom is pure childishness.
@cortster12 I think that the difference between abortion and miscarriage is another one: in an abortion, the offspring is intentionally killed, while in a miscarriage it spontaneously dies. It's the difference between being tripped on purpose or by accident. Miscarriages can happen in unwanted pregnancies, and abortions can be performed on wanted pregnancies.
Comes to mind a story told by a nurse who used to work for Gosnell at an abortion facility. A teen pregnancy, incest at that. The mother and the grandmother wanted the girl to have an abortion, because they wanted to cover up the father. The teenager didn't want an abortion. She told the doctor. The doctor and the family insisted that that was best for her, pinned her down to perform it. Suddenly she got up and ran with the speculum still inside her and started to bleed. Ultimately the Dr decided he wasn't going to perform that one and that the girl needed to be taken to the ER.
these days, we just turn into geeks to prevent having children we cant afford. We save the babies by not having them in the first place.
5:22 Reminds me of the small towns in Japan (and around the world) that are currently paying people to move to them so they don't completely disappear

Where are you from,if you don't mind telling? It's fascinating to hear that in your region girls were spared and not boys because in Asia generally (particularly where I am from,India) boys are considered more desirable and female infants are more likely to be killed/aborted.It is so much of a problem that the both India and China have laws in place to discourage from the practice and have regions with very skewed sex ratios.
@@HisameArtwork as an italian i can assure that baby killing was not that spread at all .Even since during fascist era , the italian criminal code for baby killing condemn the mother up to 12 years of jailtime and others to at least 21 years .catholic church considered it a capital sin, not forgivable
@@HisameArtwork definitely is not common in Italian culture. Boys and girls were both cared for. Traditional italians don't believe in abortion either. A baby was considered a blessing regardless and there were even laws where a rapist would have to support that child and mother.
Yes, I am Italian and I was referring to the small town in southern Italy where I was born.
There was this sort of religious fear, of course, but during the post-war period, people had gotten into the habit of killing newborn babies to avoid starving to death.
Females were considered more "valuable" than males because they had a better chance of marrying rich men.
Eh, many of the old ladies I knew growing up only had sisters for that very reason.
Absolutely not a common practice in Italy, I should have specified, pardon!
-_-"
Were there any problems if it was discovered that they killed the child but reported it as a miscarriage like being shamed for it or anything?
I'd like to know that too.
Yes. The punishments varied depending on the domain/region. Punishments were mostly light. Fines were common, from small to large. Severe punishments were rare, but included:
- Demotion or removal from government office
- Public shame. E.g. forehead tattoo, shaving mom's hair, shaving dad's eyebrows.
- Banishment
- Reducing the offender to "outcaste" status
- One woman had her nose cut off (seems to be the worst punishment on record)

How do you think Christians took over the Roman Empire? Sure, conversions accounted for some of it, but mostly, it was Christians having children when pagans wouldn't, and Christians adopting children that pagans abandoned. Christians having more children overwhelmed any attempt by pagans to persecute them, to say nothing of the testimony of the martyrs winning converts faster than the persecutors could kill them.

Mine has been gifted with your viewership.
Oh you :)
Speaking of mabiki reminds me of how in Ancient Greece what they did is if they had a baby in a household they would put a branch of bay at the front of the door if it was a boy, or a short piece of wool if it was a girl, but very often if they didn´t wanted the child they leave them at the door or at the entrance of a temple.
Seems many cultures had this problem. Mohammad also tried to run an anti-infanticide program that seemingly wasn't very successful until Uthman (the third Caliph after the death of Mohammad) took over because Uthman had the bright idea to actually provide food to families. There's a story of Uthman being in a mosque at night and hearing a child cry. He called out to the mother to ask why the baby was crying and she said she was trying to wean it because only weaned children received a food subsidy and she couldn't produce enough milk because she had no food. Uthman fell to his knees and cried out something like "How many babies blood is on my hands?!" He gave the woman all the money he had on him and immediately ordered that newborns also qualify for the subsidy.
I'm fairly certain that Mesopotamia also had a problem with unwanted babies and that this is where many women who worked as temple priestesses came from. There was a lot written in the legal codes about the rights of sons, including adopted sons, to an education and care but there wasn't a lot written about the upkeep of girls. Giving girls who are given to a temple an inheritance is optional and she usually only has use of it for her lifetime before it reverts back to her brothers. Temple priestesses earned money through uh...the world's oldest profession. We have price lists for various positions and hymns like Ishtar Will Not Tire. There was probably always at least one priestess at a given temple who was lactating. Maybe families looked at giving their daughters to Ishtar as a more humane alternative to getting rid of them.

"Even animals care for all of their young..." Yeah, no. Cats and dogs will just straight-up *eat* the runts to ensure that they and the stronger young will survive. It's the brutal logic of life.
Yep, rabbits will often eat their young if they have the slightest inkling the nest is under threat. Birds will abandon their nests if something disturbs it. Heck, the entire reproductive system of a marsupial literally evolved to allow a mother to voluntarily abort their offspring. (They give birth to partially developed foetus's, if something happens, such as an unexpected drought, the mother will kick the developing offspring out of the pouch to die, this is due to that marsupials evolved to cope with unpredicatable enviromental conditions). In nature, the parents often prioritise themselves as it's to their reproductive advantage to give up on an offspring and try again later when conditions are better, than waste resources on a hopeless cause. This human practice is very in keeping with the general behaviour of other mammals and birds.

Im really sorry to hear about your loss. It must ve been really hard to get better after loosing a,child you wanted....
Regarding abortions maybe you should speak to someone who went through this. I know two people who had to and I can assure you neither of them did so lightly. I can see up close how it affects them years later and I'm grateful I never had to go through such choice. To you having a child is a blessing ..to me it would mean lifetime of hell. We are all different, ve different resources, healthcare, support etc. You ve a right to decide about your own fertility but ultimately that's the extent of it. I'd never dare to suggest to someone what to do re pregnancy I ve seen enough in my life to truly understand its not black and white choice rsp in countries where contraception is not free and widely available.
@@daringcow thank you very much for your words. Yeah we are all different indeed and when we see what is happening in the world, the wisest decision is not having a child. Or at least would be better to wait for a better time . The love of a mother grows before pregnancy and when the baby goes to heaven , the pain is unbearable. I think this is a reason I cannot understand people that abort.
People tend to ignore why they would do that in the first place. In most cases is because they cannot take care of them.
Life maybe is a bless for you, but there are people outta there starving everyday, being misthreated, abused or raped by their own parents, enslaved, depressed and being shamed for it isntead of getting help. Do not think the world revolves around your point of view and that everyone has the same circumstances as you. There's a lot of people who just wish they'd never been born, me, for example.
