I have two Hubski friends I consider my adopted parents.

Sometimes, the Internet can help you find others to supplement or outright provide the deep, meaningful, impactful, educational, etc, that traditionally, a person would either be forced to find in the people around them (both related by blood and just proximate), or go without.

That doesn't mean it's ok to be a crap or absent parent. But i think there is hope to be found in the internet, not just depersonalization.
