Evil parenting?

First of all- We are not animals. You can't kill people because they abandon\molest their kids. That's just the basics of the civilization.
I haven't said that you owe something to your parents. I said that you shouldn't take family\love\care for granted. By law they must take care of you but a family is a lot more then some relationship based on a law(nature or civil).
Your problems, believe it or not, are rather similar to those that majority of others encounter. For example- I have experienced everything you just said. And don't get me start on the money problems...
I believe that the abortion is a way of abandoning your kid, and I'm against it. But in the same time people will tell me:"But women have the right to chose..." And that's when we come to the most important part- yes, yes they do. So, I have the right to chose the path for me, to do what makes me happy. If I abandon my kid...well, hell, my life comes first, right?
At the end of the day, my parents are there for me. Friends come and go, even if they help you, they will often do it only to a certain limit.
"Parents ARE SUPPOSED TO BE GOOD PARENTS!"
People are supposed to be good people, good friends, good husbands and wives but a lot of them are not. They chose their own way and sometimes that way is not the right one...
I didn't ask to be born (well, according to my religion I haven't)but I'm grateful for that, I'm grateful that I have a place to call home, I'm grateful to have something to eat, I'm grateful for having such parents who worked their buts off just so I could have a normal childhood. And I feel so sad when I think about all those kids that don't have that. That don't know what family is. They maybe have friends, but only they know that that is not enough. And I don't even want to talk about those that abandon their parents, brothers, sisters or even worse- those that murder their own son\daughter or father\mother...any relative.
When I see that I'm grateful to have a family, people who are there for me, and not just because they have to deal with me. We fight a lot, but they also mean a world to me.

Dude seriously, I wish you could get it. And what's worse, when I think like that, I feel like you're every day teenager that hates their parents guts for no reason than just being "the rebel" kid. It's not like that. To start I don't hate them, and of course I'm grateful to them, but I still say it's something that was forced on me. I like them, all the better. I don't then I'm screwed. But they do things sometimes that are just so flat out fucked up, that you really have to see to understand. And don't tell me friends come and go. If it's real friendship, it just doesn't come and go. The problem his people assume that any friend his a true friend...and end up with a wrong concept of what "friend" means.

And about that whole "we are not animal"...yes we are. In our deepest core, we are, and we still have all our instincts. People that assume otherwise are considering themselves superior to other living being, and are wrong. It's that kind kind of thinking that as landed us in the position we are now. I'm a naive person, but I now what I believe, and one of those things is that we are nothing but animals that caught a break in the evolutionary process. We got thumbs and some brains, and we assume we rule the planet. If we didn't have guns, I'd like to see us against some of the planets predators.
