I find a birth in any extremely prominent family to be a bore NoOneMan Jul 2013 #20
It's not about the birth, per se. It's more about who this person might come to be and what he might kestrel91316 Jul 2013 #53

does it matter why you do it? It's not about me and my idea, it's about caring for kids, isn't it? CTyankee Jul 2013 #90
If it doesn't matter why, why do it "in the name of the royal baby"? NoOneMan Jul 2013 #92
I think I phrased it inelegantly. It should "in celebration of the royal birth." CTyankee Jul 2013 #95
Yeah, I wouldn't do that either NoOneMan Jul 2013 #96
