Should being a parent be classed as a "job"?

[Ad_Quid_Orator]

in my opinion, it should be and if someone is a parent, for every child they have they should get paid for it a certain amount every month no matter their current financial situation. And for those complaining about how people would then have kids so they could "mooch off the government without contributing to economy", they are contributing. You have to have a next generation to keep society going. And if you're going to say "if you want them paid, pay them yourself", I pay taxes ipso facto I have a say in what they're spent on.

Jobs are a choice. You choose them and the job chooses if it wants you in return. Parents often chose to have kids or chose to have sex. And the kid didn't choose to have that parent. So no they shouldn't get paid for their responsibility. But they basically get paid during tax time anyways. And i lose a quarter of my check to taxes for not having a kid just yet pretty much

Yes it should but I think it should be like all those parents should live in one place one building where there are many children all the work may be divided all parents to contribute every child too considered as own by everyone and they are too treated same way also by this may every parent who don't work could work part time jobs as it it connect to this world
