yes yes it's all very sad; let's all of us take a moment to be thankful we aren't transexual disabled orphans who nobody wants to foster.
can i do a BBB and ask where the discussion value is here?
all we're going to get are sympathy comments and anti-religious comments that likely will spark a flamewar.

[quote]can i do a BBB and ask where the discussion value is here?[/quote]I wasn't aware that all threads require some sort of deep discussion value. Besides, I think there is potential for discussion, albeit less than other topics. I posted the story since I found it interesting/sad, and I figured others might too. I believe that alone is enough to justify the posting. Not that I should be required to justify why I choose to post some article but I figured I would at least attempt to address your post. Additionally spreading these sorts of stories/articles give people more information about how hard it can be for others and it could encourage them to do something to help. Granted, that probably isn't going to be the case for many, but the chance is still higher than a person that is completely ignorant of the issue. Anyways, if you truly think the topic is boring (I am still confused what is meant by BBB, assuming blah...) then simply don't post.

it was in refference to the user Big Black Bear (BBB) who always used to make the comment that whichever thread he was in had little-to-no discussion value and therefore was not suitable for posting on a discussion forum.
