Skippy, you need to skip on out of here. You second post veteran. LOL. Our government is pathetic. Encouraging the welfare state. THAT is what is disgusting!!!!!!!

Indeed. And then there's the sh^^hole the Philippines where there are 17 K*ds to a family and no condoms used. Praise Jesus. Religions has screwed up that country for sure!! I digress, but what a cesspool.

So, having offspring that they can't afford to raise right is "survival"!?

Well, it's either THEM people have the "offspring" (I assume you meant a BABY), use condoms, or not have sex.

No legal abortion...
+ a VERY Catholic country...
+ family-oriented society that values Ch*ldren (even though they can't afford them)
= means THEM people have to exercise superhuman levels of restraint to not have "offspring"... and YOU people have already pointed out they aren't quite up to par as far as adult civilized behavior goes, right?

And WE, the PEOPLE all know how safe sex conscious these ladies of the night are, don't we?

Perhaps YOU people (that one's for you, Mr. Grumpy ) might want to consider THEM people don't necessarily think like YOU people, or place the same value on the almighty dollar YOU people do, because THEM people live in a different society YOU (actually, WE) people do.

I am fond of one chica that I have known for 7 years. She had a K*D at a young age. She started working in a massage parlor to support her K*D and her mother. Then, got involved with some gringos. She was never a super puta but rather tended to have gringo novios who supported her. She really wants to get married to one of us and have a nice life. She has taken advantage of her sponsors by going to college, learning english and getting training as a pharmacy technician. She has a decent job now, but still gets help from her viejo gringo sponsor(and me sometimes ) . She is actually a great girl with a good heart. I admire her.

I'm with Heller on this one.

"The poor you will always have with you". Matt 26:11.

Has it occurred to anyone here that these countries have been surviving with their personal little cultural value system at least as long as our oh so advanced "yea, we have abortions!" society? How about we stop casting stones until we have a cultural value system that beats theirs?

I think mh and others nailed it. They have baby's and money problems but yet they seem happy in there surroundings. They choose to see us rather than get a low paying job and most (at least the ones I have met)are good mothers. Girls we see basically want what all women want nice clothes etc. Most jobs in CR that they could get aren't going to get them what they want. I wish the girls would learn about money....but then again I never have.

I'm with you! I respect anyone who does something constructive with whatever opportunity they have.

She did the smart thing and improved her situation rather than blowing it on shoes, gadgets, drugs, etc...

I agree with you that Ch*ldren having Ch*ldren leads to phucked up lives for all. Make me king and I would require everyone to obtain a license prior to having Ch*ldren. Having Ch*ldren without a license would result in neutering and spaying. My wife is from such a situation. She has 9 brothers and sisters younger than her, with 6 sisters having from 1 to three Ch*ldren. The Catholic church is partially responsible for the problem with its' stance on birth control. It is not that the church did nothing. It was strongly against premarital sex, advocated abstinence, and not having sex during the days most likely to produce offspring in the menstrual cycle. The church just did not evolve as better ways of preventing pregnancies were developed.
Society in Costa Rica is evolving. There was a time when the majority of the people lived on farms. There was little else to do for entertainment at night except sex. Large families were not a huge problem in agricultural communities. When they started moving into the cities, this changed. In order to eat, you had to find work. This required skills and education they did not have. This pattern is not dissimilar to the growth patterns observed in America. It is going to require several generations, but eventually they will control to some extent the number of Ch*ldren they produce. All of my wife’s sisters have Ch*ldren but all of them have had their tubes tied. Instead of having ten K*ds, the most any of them will have had is three. Providing, educational opportunities and in the future job opportunities will decide if Costa Rica evolves into a cauldron of poverty or a vibrant society.

Having Ch*ldren is like jumping out of an airplane. Once a Ch*ld is on the way you might as well enjoy the ride. It is a difficult thing physically for them to go through and part of the joy of having Ch*ldren is that it is finally over. Every Ch*ld, regardless of how it gets here is special and should be welcomed joyously. It’s really hard to send them back.

Before casting blame on anyone remember back when you were 16, had a fresh hard dick and just wished you could find a place to stick it. Getting a girl pregnant was one of the last things you thought about. If you were lucky, she was on the pill or you had a condom, if not, Russian roulette. Would you have been prepared to drop out of school and go to work to support a Ch*ld? When you were 16 you were not stupid, you just didn’t worry about the consequences. If your buddy was given a vasectomy because he got a girl pregnant, it would have made you think before you stuck it in. There should be consequences for decisions that affect the lives of others. Family structure is critical in preventing pregnancies. If the family is broken it is not as easy to prevent teenage pregnancies. Think of other ethnic groups who migrated to the States. Try messing with a guy’s little sister in an Italian, Irish or Puerto Rican neighborhood during the 50s and 60s. Cubans, Mexicans, Asians, Jews, from strong close families protect their Ch*ldren much the same. They may be poor, but if the family is close and strong, the K*ds have a much better chance.

As far as social programs and the welfare system goes. Society needs these programs to assist in situations of need. Just because a parent is irresponsible does not mean a Ch*ld should go hungry, without medical attention, or a place to live. The mentally ill, the elderly deserve assistance if their families are not able to provide assistance. The programs should always be a temporary solution to problems not a way of life. The church filled this role in years past. The church now exists as a social club with nice big buildings, well cared for ministers and problems that are evident in their communities that go without address. Politicians have learned they can buy votes by supporting entitlement programs. The way to stop poverty is to break the cycle. Breaking the cycle means in order to get assistance both parents of a Ch*ld must be held accountable. If the father refuses to assist the Ch*ld, he should not be able to have more Ch*ldren. If the father is 16, his parents should assume his responsibility or accept the consequences. Parents have responsibility for the actions of their offspring. As a taxpayer, I find it distressing to see assistance programs abused. But, I had rather see three people get away with abuse than for one Ch*ld to be neglected. I was poor when I was a Ch*ld and know what is like to be hungry and homeless. The answer is to be more selective whom you vote to make decisions. With life moving at 90 miles an hour, it is hard to be informed.

The working girls are the lucky ones. They are sufficiently attractive to make money from their best asset, their looks. Feel sorry for their ugly sister at home with three K*ds. We didn’t cause the problems that exist here for the most part. Almost none of the girls have K*ds from Gringo encounters. We all have some blame because of the effects our government has had in the politics of Costa Rica, the Ugly American. In the big scheme of things our coming here is neither good nor bad. On the individual level we have the power to do good or use them and discard them. It depends on you as individuals. You can take a condescending attitude if you choose but realize it reflects what type of person you really are. If you want to do something important in life take one of these girls who has a Ch*ld, get to know her and the Ch*ld and choose to sponsor the Ch*ld. You do not assume responsibility for the girl’s actions or responsibility for the Ch*ld. You simply do something to change the life of a Ch*ld in need. It may do wonders, it may or may not be appreciated. This is not important. What is important is that you tried to make the world a better place for a Ch*ld. Giving to charity is noble but you always wonder if the money ever gets to the needy. Buying a Ch*ld a toy, shoes, school clothes is much more personal. If you appreciate the life you were lucky enough to have led, show it by giving back. Pops

Pops,

Your response here was one of, if not the most incredible, moving, poignant and heartfelt statements I have ever read on CRT. I hope to one day meet you and give you a hearty handshake and just maybe a big hug. Who are we, most of us fortunate enough to have been born in the USA, and most of us middle class or better, to look down our condescending noses at individuals born in abject poverty with little or no education from a 3rd world and condemn their behavior?

By no means am I a paradigm of virtue headed for near sainthood, but I can say I have treated all of the girls I have experienced here with respect, empathy and appreciation, the vast majority I have been with have sensed that from me and have delivered in spades because of it. I have made many mistakes and bad choices in my life so I can't feel right condemning others for their behaviour unless they are doing intentionally harmful things to people.

If everyone would adapt to those guidelines, we could eradicate the "ugly American" label in a few years. Unfortunately, there will always be some "ugly Americans".

What Ghettos? The ones all over the USA. Where people get free housing, food and healthcare. And do nothing but complain about it. It's not enough blah blah blah. Then pump out more K*ds that don't know who their daddy is.

It's bankrupting the U.S. And creating a culture of entitlement where people don't have family values. Don't want to accept responsibility for their own lives. Look at Chicago. 60 people shot last weekend.

And I have bad news for you. There are just as many young girls in the USA that will do whatever if you pay them. $300 tax free is a whole week or more working at a fast food restaurant. You don't have to go to CR.

Here Here, second that.
