One thing, i have noticed on ATS or anywere else is the concern of children and women more than men, not that i have a problem weather men get more of a levarage than the two subjects, i don't however i also don't see why those who disllike or feel physically disgusted by children should not be allowed to have their opinion and why they should be forced to be bothered about other peoples children?


I wundt hurt a child, but i don't like been near one, hearing one, seeing one or even interacting with a child, i feel physical sick been near one and i get shivers, if a question was to be given if i saw child been abused, or drowning would i save it? yes i would.

However what i am trying to say is, everyone goes on about how the poor children will be hurt, some people just don't like children and they may not like your's, they may even not be your friend just because you have a child.


I personally don't like parents i find them selfish and bitter, and as for single mothers, i believe they are worse than men able to cope with children .if they don't have a man around, the same dose not apply to majority of single men, however this debate is about your child, about children around the world, why should childless couples or individuals care about your child and take responsibility to make sure your child is not hurt, that's not other parents or childless adults responsibility that your's.

I personally wont be told i should not do something that could be a danger to a child such as a dog of a leash who may not be a danger or anything else, just for political correctness, so tell me, and give me a valid strong reason why childless adults or other parents should care about the welfare of your child?

Since English is not your first language, I'll tey to keep this short and easy to read. I don't like to be around children very much either. But laws like keeping your dog on a leash are to protect everyone, not just children. Your dog may not be a problem, but another dog could. So all dogs are on a leash.

It is part of our culture to be protective of those who are weaker than we are. We tend to protect our children out of instinct. I hope you were able to understand this.

i know that, but the question was, why should people like myself care

Dog on a leash isn't just for kids...

That's like asking why I should slow down just because you're crossing the street Maybe you should cross a little faster if you don't want to be run over.

I feel like I wandered under a dark cloud. Are you for real

Would you care if my dog attacked and seriously hurt you because it wasn't on a leash? That is why it is a law. It's to protect you and everyone else from other people's dogs that may attack you.

If you feel physically disgusted and get shivers when you're near children, you have issues pal. Considering we've all been a child, how can you possibly feel nauseated by THEM not IT. Personally, your outlook on this is disgusting, and gives me shivers.

So you would expect to get run over? Why do you live in a country with such strict laws then? You sound like you're more of an anarchist.
