It's a ridiculous generalisation which was only brought into the discussion as a means of saying "well I'm right and you're wrong because I have reproduced".

It's not the same, you would get over the death of someone else's kid even if you did have a bond with them, you just don't get over the death of your own.


When it's someone else's kid, other people die as life goes on so they are blurred into the background. When it's your own kid I'm pretty sure it's always at the forefront as life goes on.
