You seem to only be reaching for the "take this comment as a personal attack on my situation" part and missing the "this is a worrying trend if the requirement of home ownership is a stable family. Or stated more simply inference vs implication, pause being the "main character" of this comment section for a moment, because no one is discussing you. It would be helpful if you would stop inferring that we are. We have no control over your inferences.

To the topic, a stable family is something you are born into, an inheritance of its own. No one chooses their parents. The topic isn't "being a bad parent is badass!" but instead that "inheriting good parents" is now a requirement for home ownership. If you cannot see through this lens, I doubt further commentary would assist.

I love this and it's a reminder that nearly every comment section needs.
