In reply to the discussion: Kamala Harris is not "childless" [View all]Doc Sportello
(7,964 posts)12. Thank you
The post was not meant in any way to disparage women who choose not to have children. I'm a male who never wanted kids. The point basically here is that she chose to be an excellent parent to two children who weren't hers in the biologial sense. That to me is just another positive character trait to add to an already long list that she possesses.

It should not matter if she was/is. Some women cannot have children, some choose not to

Great point we all need to remember when any office holder, potential office holder, media talker disparages...

And, lots of conservative women can't have kids, or are stepmoms, or are raising a younger sibling

It was an absurd statement to begin with, but now it just reminds us how heartless and clueless these people are.

Any woman with a soul has children that she dreams for, even if they aren't her own.

A much larger percentage of women I know with kids are miserable than the child free women.

Yeah because those Moms For Liberty psychos have done such a great job, haven't they?

Exactly. Her kids came up with the name Momala because they didn't want to call her stepmom.
