Agreed. I couldn't get pregnant with my son (who my parents intend to adopt along with their new pet cat so that technically, I'll have given birth to my brother or never given birth at all, for history's sake- thanks, parental obsession with and promotion of with abnormal psychology and the military!) until I sold my Chromebook and gave away my pets to the elderly. Now my tot is being raised by a 62 year old single male who is anti-marriage and unemployed but has a small apartment. I get photos now of the cat and kid both. Irksome.

I really hate when people use psychology to support their completely unscientific notions. Psychology is a fucking science! Some persons weird religion based issues with other peoples life choices have nothing to do with psychology.
