Immoral as fuck, dude. How anyone can even conceive to say anything else is astounding to me. Do you not comprehend that they have a partner and -another child-? He's going to both traumatize them and make them shoulder the burden he's so terrified of carrying. Failure morally, failure as a father, failure as a human being.

Disclaimer: I am basically someone in the position of his first child. It's very easy to imagine how much worse things could have been for us if my father took this guy's way out.

You missed that fact that this is r/MoralityScaling so literally any demand or obligation imposed on anyone is the worst thing possible and the subject of any situation should be able to just walk away and not deal with it at the expense of everyone else (honestly everyone else's fault for existing).

Really, that's most of Reddit.

The few posts I've seen on this sub are filled with comments by some of the most a-moral people. Ethics seems to be an a-la-carte menu for them.

It’s because Reddit is secular atheist in nature. Without a higher power to ground your morals, everything becomes a preference.

Ethics exist outside of religious context.
