      yep…
      but hey, if you want to die alone with no support and nobody left who cares about you, in a nursing home, don’t have kids 😅
      do you value love? having kids awakens an entirely new kind of love and happiness that you never experienced in your whole life….
      but, if you’re a sociopath, definitely don’t have kids and collect money as an obsession or whatever….
      first year is very hard, it gets much easier as time goes on….
      nothing worthwhile is easy peasy

        Yeah, let me just bring a human life into the world for my own selfish needs and desires without any consideration for them as a person…

          It also ignores the many, many cases where children lose touch with their parents for various reasons, or the possibility that people care for each other without being forced to. Fortunately children (and spouses as well!) today can do whatever they want, leave their parents/partners if they try to emotionally blackmail them through wedding or blood contracts, and instead care for nice people.

        So instead of lamenting the fact that our society has little to no support for the elderly you decide to attack people who have no children, and decide they are sociopaths?

        I know a couple that didn’t have kids. When they got older they told me that the massive amount of money they had was meaningless to them and regrets not having kids.

        One became a CEO for a pretty large Taiwanese company but at night he worked as a professor in a nearby college . The wife did something similar. A high profile lawyer by day, a professor at night.

        They eventually ended up “adopting” young adult as their daughter they both met in school that was putting herself through school.

        It’s not the fault of anyone alone that having kids is difficult, it has a lot to do with the economy and where the kids grow up. Sardonically braising someone for not wanting kids, especially if they may choose to have kids later in life, is a waste of words, especially considering how some people are born infertile, or sometimes become that way by giving birth. If you love kids so much, you should be taking care of them RIGHT NOW

        Yeah because somebody who “isn’t” a psychopath writes like that.
