Not surprising at all, humanity is suffering from success.
If Humans are the most intelligent species, how did we create a system that is going to destroy us? Sounds more like we are the dumbest species on earth because we started to play God.
@RiseofArtemis
No, when humanity had a high morality rate to worry about there was certain traits being selected for. One of these traits was caring about the survival of your own group and if you were smart enough, find ways to improve the chances of survival which is what happened during the late 1800s and after when child morality rate started to decrease in many places.
The smarter a person is, the more likely they are to adopt ideas that would work against them in a evolutionary pov (like not wanting kids). If humans have bulit a system that's going to destroy us, it's because we've reached our limit of how "good" of a species we can be and are now mismatched for the kind of environment we've made for ourselves. An example of this is people being lazy now that we dont have to hunt or worry about dying every 5 seconds.
@RiseofArtemis greed
@letuswaltzforthedead I think what you said is really accurate!
It's a BIOLOGICAL imperative for a lot of people to still desire children. Why do you think that even people in first world countries still have children when there is really no need to? ! Why don't they just ADOPT a poor baby from an orphanage or a couple in poverty and help them out? ! But no, they have to reproduce their OWN blood line and genetic line! It's a selfish thing. Some (Richard Dawkins perhaps) even coined it "THE SELFISH GENE"! Also, a lot of earth is already overpulated yet they DON'T CARE! I saw the Duggars had a lot children and even everyday people, I see them out and about with like 2 or 3 children in tow so hmm!
So yeah, I don't think it's due to LAZINESS that some people don't want children. It's because they probably did want it but they couldn't afford it or maybe they are in that phase where they were too selfish, or just simple "bad luck" in terms of not meeting Mr. Right or having the means to be careless? ? ! Unfortunately, that last part was true for me... I hope it's not too late but what can I do if it is! Guess I'll do parenting on my own or something maybe.
@TenderFantasy I'm sorry for not being clear but I didn't mean to say people were lazy for not having kids, I meant to say that people have a lot more free time now than in the past (which isn't necessarily a bad thing).
Also, with the case of the duggars, I completely agree with you.. it seems like Baby fever is becoming more inheritable now due to that being the kind of people who are actually reproducing, that's one theory. It could be wrong since the children of mega huge families like those tend to have less children than their parents.
On the other hand, I disagree that ANY part of the world is overpopulated. If anything, there has been a mismanagement of resources in certain areas but most of the world has under replacement fertility and the mega big families are EXTREMELY rare in development countries. That's why they have a tv series. I agree that they should adopt as well, every country has hundreds of children that need a family but it doesn't mean you can't do both (have children and adopt, either way, they'll both be your children).

One half ounce of greed will destroy 2 tons of intelligent logic and reason , It happens time and time again
@AMS700CX4u2 yep
Let me see. Hollow out a coconut through a hole big enough to place a small portion of fruit but not large enough to allow a monkey to remove a clenched fist. Even at the point of capture the monkey will not let go of the fruit to evade his demise, which he knows is totally possible. Hmmm, sound familiar? Maybe we will escape to a new planet. The only hope for that new world would be to destroy the invading human infection before it has a chance to spread.
Nope not at all. It's to expensive to have kids nowadays. Most marriages don't last.
They don't last because people are manipulated to always put themselves first. A relationship is a team effort. Both can't do the same. One has to be the breadwinner while the other raises the kids. Its the natural law which modern society destroyed for greed.
@RiseofArtemis there's probably more to it then that. But I agree for the most part.
@RiseofArtemis 👍👍
Not really, but western society would have a shock theraphy at some point because of falling birth rates.
Not surprised. The harsh reality you have to be able to land a good and secure career in this current era to have have and create a family that is living a decent and comfortable life.
Not surprised at all. Kids are expensive and a big responsibility. Marriage is a huge responsibility as well.
Our generation has begun to realise that you don't need to do these just because it's the norm. Only do it if you're up for it.
No, because it's harder to have a family and kids these days than ever before.
Good for them.
I want elastic in my underwear.
We all have goals in life.
All you have to do is get off of your butt and make it happen.
Both of those things are a choice and for you to act like something is wrong with someone for not wanting those things just shows that you don't think for yourself at all.
No, cause for most of us, those concepts were a lie.
no there is so much wrong nowadays that its just plain dumb to just blindly reproduce and bind yourself to a person
Abortion and fornication is in style now. Not really. Antinatalism might be also, but I don’t know how popular it is.
No, I'm not. I've come across them. And it's their life so their decision. I don't mind.
Not surprised at all they're so busy eating tide pods and snorting condoms on Tik Tok.
Sure sure sure
There are many more surprising things, which aren’t that surprising
I think this is only true amongst the tards of the current generation. No great loss.
Sure
dumb retarded logic. Like poor people don't have nor want kids loool.
I'm not surprised, but it makes me sad..
Nope and thankfully lol
Nope; not surprised one bit!
Smart people waste of time and money
