I don't understand how you inferred that unless you chose to.

> And a whole lot of people managed to raise even more children before cars were invented or even horses were domesticated.

What on earth are you talking about? Either you've never been to London, or any major European city, or you're making spurious comparisons in bad faith.

You mentioned some woman raising children without a car as if it somehow supported your point, I pointed out that somebody doing something in the past is not a proof of that being somehow superior or even acceptable now. Even in the present time millions live and raise children without running water and electricity, should we start arguing that Americans need to quit these too because they cannot imagine living without them?

Every time you reply you only further prove this point.

> I pointed out that somebody doing something in the past is not a proof of that being somehow superior or even acceptable now.

Either you’re unable to understand my point because your English comprehension is terrible or you’re arguing in bad faith. Either way, talking to you is a waste of time.

Okay, I see you are being just combative. As I said I lived in the USSR and not as a single childless man working remotely and ordering deliveries too (I was a child myself though).
