But you aren't little Hans and you aren't in his brain and he might NOT grow up to be exactly like you- in fact odds are he won't- so why would he think like you and why does it matter what would happen "if you were little Hans"? What kind of an argument is that? Most people aren't like you. In fact a huge majority aren't like you to measure the opinion polls- so that would make little Hans something of a freak if he turned out thinking just like you. You don't deserve to make his choice for him. And I don't deserve to make his choice for him. His surviving parent should make his choice for him.

Then little Hans can hate them if he wants too. That's what being a parent is all about.

But of course he could hate other people too if he wanted to. Hating is sort of a pointless vocation, but I'm all for letting people do what they want, within reason.
