There's another quote that comes to mind, also from my English teacher (Thankyou Mr. McIntyre for everything)

No man is an island.
Why shouldn't self reliance be instilled from birth?

Why shouldn't people realize they MUST earn their bread?

That to live of those who work is shameful? When did that change?

That if they choose to have children, they MUST be responsible for their support?

Giving birth is not a 'right', regardless of what you've been taught. Its an awesome responsibility, and way too many abuse it.
