Why nowadays couples didn't like to have children's?

Question

Oigit · Accepted Answer

I am very much a no children guy. The honest truth is that we learn a lot about relationships from our parents or lack there of. For example if you end up in the middle of your parents messed up relationship there is a chance you are going to end up creating the same relationships for yourself in the future. My childhood did not provide me with examples of a good relationship growing up. My mothers childhood also didn't give her good examples as well. Due to that I'm a no person guy. Also I have found myself making the same mistakes my mother did when she chose men. So I don't date much or get involved with women in general. To some people it might seem really overboard to take things that far. But it's the only way to break the cycles I'm a product of.

Because many people are self focused. Though it's true that raising children needs money and responsibility, that was also the case for their parents raising them.
Having children needs people to leave their comfort zone, they responsibility and work harder and invest money, time and energy one doesn't get back.
All this investments can he hard and uncertain and therefore they seem too risky
to do.
We're a comfort and pleasure focused young generation.
There are some more valid points though for example bigger questions like overpopulation, personal problems or the missing ability of having children.

I don't really want kids for various reasons such as, pregnancy is scary, giving birth is scary, kids are expensive, they smell weird, schedules have to revolve around them, they're loud and obnoxious and they are full of demands. As far as I'm concerned my weed of a family tree is better off not being extended 😂

they're a big burden and not everyone wants that. a lot of folks are busy with their own lives, nevermind adding a baby to the mix

Apple1996 · Answer

Not true. Come to my neighborhood. It's full of kids, including my own kids

ohshee · Answer

Because they're responsible people that's why they know that our world is taking a shit and it will be in that down the wrong path you don't want to bring children into this world when you don't know if you're going to be there to protect then and you definitely do not want young people growing up in the negative world that is no life to give to anybody you give life when you can make life better for somebody when you can make that person's life better than your own when you can make them productive and beautiful than happy so they can have children but when you don't know the outcome of War of the Worlds headed it's smart it's responsible not to bring children into the world and that's very very sad because all of us want children

QuietKyody · Answer

Wow so many people don't like kids. I would love to have 100+ kids, but I'd need a couple million $ before I have that many. Why? Too many to count. The key is being prepared for them. My hope would be my connection to them would be stronger than anyone else's. Plus my DNA would do the world 10x better than 98% of the DNA floating around today. Don't believe me? Thinking this guy is egotistic as hell? Well you should consider yourself to be a possible candidate of the 98% forementioned. Cause you do not know me Steve/Karen! XD

soe11 · Answer

With respect your assumption is in correct, in fact those people are minority, vast majority are love to have kids but minim one maximum two. If I can understand correctly people's views.

Heartache0405 · Answer

Too expensive and everything revolves around the mother from the decision of whether said child will even be born (men don’t have reproductive rights) to the mother or a women who could have been the mother of the child receiving more comfort than the father/potential father. Why would a man ever want to have kids these days? And why should a woman have a kid these days?

CountessSarah · Answer

Children are a cost, both with regards to the money required and in terms of the time investment.
There are already too many people.
And there's more to life than just a biological drive to procreate.

RealMarek · Answer

Civilizations rise and decline in a predictable way. During the latter stages of decline, birth rates tend to decrease. At its peak, Rome had 1-2 million residents, an enormous city for the time. Within a couple hundred years, it was down to 30-35,000 residents and animals were grazing within the walls. The population of indigenous Europeans is on track to nearly disappear within 200 years. This has happened before. It will happen again.

romantic6655 · Answer

If they wanted children, they would marry... They don't want children; Because they see this as a responsibility, and they bother with expenses.. Most want sexual pleasure with certain people for a certain period and then leave them to others.. This is the look of guys and girls

Cuz they're being wirelessly mind controlled with Directed Energy Weapons (Extremely Low Frequencies) to not copulate and populate.

One reason is, in my opinion, is that it is tougher to "make it" now a days. Things are more expensive compared to income.

AndrésC64 · Answer

I think it's a combination of there not being as much pressure or expectation to have children as there was in the past. And people realizing that maybe there are enough people on the planet already.

mT2359 · Answer

Raising a kid is hard work and responsibility. The female has to sacrifice a lot and the male has to ensure that the life they lead as a family is comfortable enough to sustain their family in such uncertain times.

Kids are a pain. They will start being mature till about 20 years old so that's 20 years of sleepless nights, arguing, paying for their education.
Plus your body will be damaged from having kids.

Young couples these days are too stupid and self-centered to have children. It's better that they don't have them. Let the Arabs and the Africans keep humanity going. The West wants to be extinct, so just let them die.
