This case also brings up the evil of selfishness, which seems to be another factor in the dissolution of the family structure in our society.  This evil is what we, as possible future parents, need to be aware of.  When one brings another life into the picture it is just not about us anymore.  There needs to be a sense of responsibility and accountability for not only ourselves, but for the other individual in the relationship, and the child brought into the world.  Decisions need to be made not necessarily in the best interest of one’s self, but of the family members around them.  This takes great effort, and may involve an enormous amount of compromise.  This is just how it is, and how it should be.  One’s actions in becoming a parent draw consequences, neither necessarily good nor bad, but they are there, and need to be addressed in a mature, responsible, and accountable manner. 

These are but a few factors that need to be dealt with to strengthen the family structure, decrease the amount of divorces, and limit the cases of the abandonment of children in our society.

No child should have to deal with the irresponsible faults of their parents.  No child should cry themselves to sleep. 

We need to break these current trends, and as future parents work to better ourselves to better our future families.
