To say that if you can’t take a simple pregnancy test without help, you shouldn’t be considering parenthood.

[TottieandMarchpane]

What is it with all the numerous “can you help me with a pregnancy test?” and “line eyes!” threads?

Parenting is much harder than PingOAS and looking for a line. If you can’t manage this, you’ve fallen at the first hurdle.

AIBU to think that someone who can’t remember what ‘line eyes’ means shouldn’t consider parenthood? You need to remember things when you have kids. Like their names and where you left them and how many Go Jetters there are.

Can I just randomly mention what a great site Reddit is?

Sure.

If I can just randomly mention losing the first half of your username might suit you better.

I really don't get your post. You think people who want a second opinion because a line is still faint shouldn't have kids? So you're assuming they are parents worthy of SS intervention because of this?

I think people who write judgemental nonsense shouldn't post threads on internet forums. Each to their own.

oh for god's sakes, it's not goady, it's a valid point.

It's posters getting their knickers in a twist who are creating the drama. It's not against the spirit of YABU to post about random thoughts and questions. Some posters really need to grow up....

I have posted on here with contradictory results before as i wanted anecdotal information not official (self protective) information that you read on the product info or leaflet. google wouldnt help either!

I think the only people who need to grow up are those incapable of realising there could be a many number of reasons, some heartbreaking, behind reasons why these threads appear so often.

Oh, you're one of those. I'm not surprised.

Please explain its validity.

What? A person who reads Reddit?

I popped over there at lunchtime for a change of subject. I didn’t get one. I did laugh

It’s aimed at anyone who posts a thread asking if there’s a line on a pregnancy test. Nobody specific.

Just specifically those who post lines on pregnancy tests threads, then.

YABU. You don't have to open the threads...

If you don't like the posts scroll past, that's the beauty of posts. I think delibrately trying to upset woman who are already going thro a tough time is tne lowest of the low. They come onto a parenting and pregnancy site for support not judgement. Like I said if you don't like the posts scroll past, no body is making you read them and leave them for posters who actually do care.

Yes, that would be bad, if it happened.
