    I was adopted - abandoned at the hospital after birth. Not every adoptee has a deeply traumatic past that makes it hard to raise them.

    Likewise many bio children are just as capable of being stressful and challenging to raise.

    Glad to see you’ve gone this route and thank you for doing so. I just wanted to dispel some fears for others.











  • Because it’s not the end of the world? Shoes, carpet, no shoes, who cares - nothing fucking happens, you don’t catch leprosy and die.

    I could maybe see an argument in countries where it snows and shit, because lots of water could make it soggy and potential for mold but otherwise it’s fine.

    Here in Australia it’s not even uncommon to walk around on the footpath/shops in barefeet. Slightly less common these days but you still see it and no one bat’s an eye.
