Instead of rallying for life why don’t they rally against student loans because that’s why millennials aren’t having kids

rally for higher wages and more jobs so we could afford to feed our hypothetical children

“lefty corporations”

Rally for Vaccinations because great-grandmother’s 12 kids, 9 died before 4 years old from disease.  

My grandmother (born 1890′s in back woods Texas) used to talk about her sibs that were named this or that because of what they did (i.e. great aunt Dovie was named that because she cooed like a dove).  I asked her why they weren’t named when they were born.  She said they were just called Baby until the next baby came along (at about year old) “because there ain’t no point on wasting a name on a baby that wasn’t going to stay”.

Her mother had 18 babies, and 3 didn’t “stay” long enough to get names.  Another 3 didn’t make it to adulthood.  After the first dozen or so it took longer and longer to recover from each pregnancy/birth.  She was bedridden a year after the 16th and bedridden permanently after the 18th.
