I hear they let gay people raise children now. :o

I can't put my finger on what it is, but there is something that annoys me about the Humans of New York thing.

I don't even know what this is, but I can guess: it's the lame special snowflakism.  E.g.

Quote"What's your biggest dream for your child?"
"We'll let him dream for himself."

Total garbage.

It's just unresponsively glib.

It is totally possible to let a kid dream for himself, while also having your own dreams for him. The question was asking about the latter.

I think you and Ide pretty much got it.

:yes:

Your estate will be split so many ways you'd have to be Warren Buffet for their inheritances to be sizable. :P

I don't think that's what the question was about, actually.

It's OK.  It's highly overrated.
