I can say I've felt like a cheater.
But when I'm trying to think without emotions don't we do tons of cheating in our life?
You aren't going to NOT pay for a child's college just so they can have the pride of doing it themselves.
Don't admire me for having an unmedicated childbirth... It was easy and very little pain. Admire Romana who has terrible pain in childbirth but keeps doing it.
I wouldn't risk my life if I had a placenta previa to have my vaginal birth. I'd go sign up for a csection.
If I got skin cancer I wouldn't not get treatment even if it was my addiction to tanning beds that gave it to me.
We live in a culture that (sometimes rightly) sees fat as the results of major sin of gluttony. I am still fighting the voice inside that says I'm a bad person for getting so very fat.
My bad habit wasn't smoking that gave me lung cancer or sleeping around sans condoms that gave me an STD. My bad habit was to not stop eating when I was full. I just took an available medical treatment. Like I take an anxiety pill everyday for another thing I'm not strong enough to handle alone.
