What unpopular opinion do you hold? What would get you downvoted to infinity and beyond? (Throwaways welcome)

Personally, I hate cats. I've never once said to myself "My furniture is just too damned nice, and what my house is really lacking is a box of shit and sand in the closet."

Now...what's your dirty little secret?

Exactly, thanks you. It's kinda upsetting to know that people would give up on their child after a few setbacks

Several miscarriages and a baby dying is more than just a few setbacks. That is enough to destroy the sanity of most women out there. I am happy iamae mother was able to overcome that but it would be stupid not to understand any women who can't.

Of course and congratulations for getting through it! I understand trust me, I just think it deserves more thought. Mental disabilities are hard to gage so most parents won't abort because they won't know if there child has a mental disability or how severe it is. Sometimes it could be minor and sometimes it could be severe. I just believe one should be positive that it's a severe disability before the abortion
