Before commenting, I hope that those women who have already become mothers, will become mothers, and may become mothers in the future, think about a serious question-if you are pregnant, but you are in a bad situation, living in a bad environment, and economic The situation doesn't allow it, and it's unfair to meet a man... Do you choose to have a childbirth or an abortion? If a child is born, do you choose to reluctantly raise her or send him to a family that can provide a better living environment?
This paragraph is quoted from "Devil Economics".
In the United States in the 1990s, urban crime rates rose sharply, and residents panicked, as if the end of the world was about to come. Shooting has become commonplace, car theft, robbery, rape... happen almost every day. The reason is that the so-called super predator-a scrawny city boy with a cheap pistol in his hand, only cruelty and violence in his mind, such super predators are everywhere in the thousands. Some people predict that these young new-generation assassins will bring the entire United States into an eternal disaster. In 1995, criminologist James Alan Fox wrote a report to the U.S. Attorney General, in which he detailed the arrival of the juvenile delinquency wave. It mentioned that “the new wave of crime will bring huge panic to people. Next, 1995 was simply a peaceful and prosperous age."
However, what happened next was surprising: not only did the crime rate not continue to rise, but on the contrary, it fell, declining, declining, and declining year by year. Almost all types of crimes range from personal assaults to small Car theft is the case. Some people attribute this to the soaring economic growth rate in the United States, while others believe that the new gun management bill and police patrol program have worked, but a behavioral economist Steven Levitt believes that there is another major factor that has been overlooked. ——Jane Roe's victory in the abortion case. The U.S. Supreme Court declared Jane Roe's victory on January 22, 1973, and the nation's legal abortion law was implemented.
Studies have shown that children born in unhappy family environments are far more likely to become criminals than children born in happy families. After the abortion law, millions of women went to the hospital to perform abortions. Most of these people were poor, unmarried or underage women. If their children were born, they were far more likely to become criminals. Much larger than ordinary children, it is precisely because of this bill that these future criminals were not born. After many years, the crime rate began to drop sharply.
I firmly believe that most of the mothers of those super predators are deeply affected by their children, and even "for my children, you can die." Great maternal love! However, from a rational and realistic point of view, good wishes and effective actions are completely different things. Mothers who are caught in the troubles of underage pregnancy, unmarried pregnancy, poverty and other troubles are already facing difficulties, giving birth and raising children will only make the situation. To make matters worse. In the end, love didn't change anything. Most of them are still alive. Even if they really "go to death", they can't prevent their children from becoming criminals, hurting others, and finally being abandoned on the street like dead dogs.
People are always influenced by the environment, not by the environment.
Social and anthropologists tell us that human nature is plastic. The living environment is shaping human nature, and work is shaping human nature. In short, a person's world shapes a person. Although people arrogantly think that the world they live in is the earth, people, and universe, in fact, a person mainly lives in a fixed area throughout his life, knows a fixed group of people, and engages in a fixed job, which constitutes a person's world , This world constitutes the human nature of this person-a bad living environment is easier to cultivate bad humanity, and a superior living environment is easier to cultivate superior humanity.
Although there are exceptions, such as the daughters of cowardly and incompetent mothers and alcohol and drug addicts and domestic violence fathers who are admitted to college, engaged in legitimate occupations, married and had children in big cities, this exception also has another name-"miracle." ! A miracle is unlikely to happen. Just like in the movie, the daughter is pregnant by her mother's boyfriend. It is normal for a family of "four" to live a harmonious life after the mother is domestically abused. The continuation of this situation has formed what Julia said: family education is inversely proportional to the fertility rate, and family income is inversely proportional to the fertility rate. Development and life dreams are becoming increasingly elusive. Without the intervention of strong external forces, this cycle is difficult to break.
In the movie, Julia and her husband who died in suspended animation use the most extreme way to break this cycle and save these children caught in the cycle-kidnap the children and give them to the right family to raise them!
At the beginning of the movie, we saw a small town heading towards death: Our town is six years dead. The sky is gloomy, the buildings are dilapidated, the garbage is piled up, wild dogs wandering in the street, the adults are doing nothing, the children are staring blankly, If the sun doesn't shine on this corner, the difficulties are written on people's faces. This is a small town that has been abandoned by God. It has nothing but lifelessness. It seems to be the isolated town in "Silent Hill"-very coincidentally, the girl who plays Jenny in this movie happens to be in "Silent Hill" Played Alessa. The town once had its own glory. At that time, Julia’s husband was a highly respected doctor, and Julia was an angel-like nurse. Later, the mine closed and the income was cut off. Despair pushed the once honest town residents into a moral abyss. The children in the town became the sacrificial objects of this decaying world. The Julia couple, who could not accept this tragic situation, have since rescued the innocent children in their own way.
Unfortunately, due to an accident, Julia was in jail. Her husband also suspended the activities after sending the 19th, and only child, Jenny, who voluntarily asked to be sent away. However, the rescue activities will not be suspended. This does not originate from the accidental behavior of one or two well-meaning people, but from organized rescue operations with a large number of people all over the world. These latecomers are probably like Julia who would rather insist that they will have 18 children. Kill all the stalwarts who have thrown their bodies and were sentenced to death and have to cover the rescue operations.
So far, according to the idea in the movie, those mothers who are unable to protect their underage children but insist on giving birth are not worthy of sympathy, and those fathers who are irresponsible and merely obey instinct cannot be forgiven. So, are those people who, like Julia, have noble sentiments and risk their lives to save children, are they right? What are the views of the saved children?
At the end of the movie, Jenny, who has lived a superior life, developed her potential, and is getting closer and closer to her dream, wanders in the park. "I remind myself I wanted this life. I wanted it. I made it happen. I guess it's better this way,right?……Right?……Right?……"
Right?
