1
I'm a single mum.
2
Well you've done something really horrible though.
3
You've dragged someone and forced them into a position they didn't want to be in.
4
No one ever asked to be born.
5
I feel like you're on another planet.
6
Having children is obviously such a joy and a great thing in life.
7
It's a natural feeling as a woman.
8
We all have that maternal instinct as well.
9
My view on biological children, I don't think people should have them.
10
I'm going to have to stop here and just ask you why.
11
No one ever asks to be born.
12
When you give birth, you're choosing to do something to someone else.
13
You're creating them.
14
They never ask for it.
15
You know, you can't get consent from someone to bring them into the world.
16
But it is a natural process.
17
But just because something's natural doesn't mean it's right.
18
There are many things that happen in nature which we would say that's bad, like malaria, you know, animals rape each other, things like this.
19
If you look at any other situation in our daily lives where we would talk about consent should not act
20
if you can't get consent from someone.
21
I'm a single mum and I have a son who's nine years old
22
and just before I turned 20 I decided
23
that I was going to be a surrogate and I was UK's youngest surrogate to triplets.
24
I can totally understand that people have this biological drive.
25
Nothing's stopping me like I could do it.
26
Well actually I had a vasectomy two weeks ago
27
so there is something stopping me there was nothing okay
28
there was nothing there was nothing stopping me what made you make
29
that decision so young because i know already
30
that i'm not going at the age of 23
31
i did not know half of what i know
32
now the feelings change i'm sure you're not the same i'm definitely not the same person
33
that i was when i was 19 to experience like pregnancy i can't even put into words how
34
that feels like it's a feeling
35
that you've never ever felt before like i don't know it kind of saddens me to know
36
that you'll never experience that all of
37
that to me just sounds like an ego trip you've brought someone into existence
38
and it's made you feel all these things yeah that's good for you
39
but we can't see other people as a means to our own ends okay
40
i'm just gonna say it how it is i feel like you're on another planet i can understand now
41
that bringing someone into the world just for my selfish desires is not a good reason to do it
42
when you do create someone you're bringing them into a world where you you know
43
that there are loads of bad things
44
that could happen to them they could be hit by a car
45
and live with lasting pain they could get cancer very early on fall victim to sex trafficking all things like this
46
do you think that your selfish desire to have that kid is worth it if they live a life like that
47
that's a bit crazy like why are you always picking up the negative in this sit
48
because that's all i'm hearing you say is so this could happen
49
that could happen so i'm sure you've had a bad experience
50
or event some point in your life up until now most people have whether it's a bad memory
51
or you've lost someone or whatever the case is you learn to deal
52
and cope you learn you learn to mitigate the bad things
53
that happen to you but no one can just live their life but
54
but bringing someone into existence well you've done something really horrible there you've dragged someone
55
and forced them into a position they didn't want to be in
56
and those bad things are happening to them and you've done
57
that biologically your gene pool that will end with you
58
so what's bad about that just how do you feel just knowing
59
that yeah fine good i'm not opening the door to any more bad things happening to people
60
it just literally makes no sense i mean most people
61
that i interact with have um the same view as you
62
so like you've never met anyone who thinks my way
63
and literally everyone i meet thinks your way are you a lonely child no no no
64
i have a sister no did you have a good childhood
65
like yeah yeah yeah everyone thinks anyone who has this view no not not even
66
that if you had a good childhood then you know what it feels like to experience joy and memories.
67
Yeah, as someone who exists, but if I was never born, I would have never have missed that.
68
So what would you say to me if I was the one that was looking for a surrogate?
69
Well, I would think you shouldn't.
70
And I would say, like, if you want to have a child and raise them, adopt.
71
I've had debates with many people, but that was something else.
72
I just feel more sad for him, really, that just at a young age, he's made such a life -changing decision.
73
Just frustrated with all the negativity about why you shouldn't have children and not the positive side of what you should enjoy.

I'd rather have kids.
75
100 % life is here to be lived and I can't wait to have more children.
76
We don't agree but I enjoyed it.
77
I do understand where people are coming from.
78
This is a topic where I'm so often confronted by the opposing view
79
that if I would have heard anything by now that would make me change my mind, I think I would have heard it.
80
I would rather have no biological children, but I'm perfectly up for adopting someone.

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
