Why don't you take your own advice? If your going to dole out parental wisdom, why not have some skin in the game?

Yes I would like people to think. Challenge. Raise emotionally healthy people with the confidence and character of people I don't mind voting. Crazy.

You have no idea what my charitable life is like.

It is not evident that you "don't give a rats butt about other people's kids." You clearly do.
