Someone help me understand the rationale behind starting a family here. No, I don't mean having a relationship with another "refugee." That's between you and your partner. Take the risk, if you feel like it. Clearly that one hasn't panned out well for a number already, but go ahead. Perhaps the other person will come back, and they'll have no idea who you are, but love endures and all that.
But what possesses anyone to consider children in a place where you can't guarantee being there for them? Yes, I understand no place and no world secures your life as sacred. Enough of us are familiar with how families get torn apart regardless of being uprooted from home. How do you justify willfully risking -- accepting inevitability -- that a child born here won't have one or both parents even a year into the future? And, mind you, a year is probably a generous estimate given the revolving door this world seems affixed to.
