And if honorable ned had listened to that ass, he could have prevented a war. Instead, he had to protect children by allowing thousands of children to die to war, sickness, etc.

And, your etc. includes a wife, a son & heir, his castle and lands, many of his people, and his remaining Children are orphans and in the wind. I almost gave up on the series and books because I could not believe Ned's decision-making. That conversation with Renly really deserved more discussion and careful consideration. Ned was really in over his head. I surrendered to it.
