One of the most beautiful feeling is the moment you hold your child for the first time and every other time you hold them it change. your life for the best. And it should..

Because it's in that moment that you have to understand that that child is yours to bring up into this world to make them be , what time is it

Everything that you learned growing up everything that you learned on how your parents treated you

You look at it and you throw away the bullshit. You incorporate all the good stuff

You stay grounded , you stay calm and you teach

You don't yell you don't scream discipline you don't hit you not show anger you teach if they do something wrong, you give them more responsibility, you don't take from them. You give them more responsibility

In the turn eighteen , you can sit back and smile and say I did a beautiful job you leave ego out of the whole scenario

You leave me mime me me me out of the whole scenario. It's not about the parent , it's about the child

No in saying all the above i am so blessed that my child came in a time where there was peace in the world. You didn't have evilpoliticians or leaders that have the ego that have to try to prove themselves

I say everybody in this world should have children. We were all meant to have children

But I have children in this day and time , no and I mean , I would love to , but we don't know where the world is headed to , we have no idea

If something happens and you have to protect yourself and you have a kid in your arm, because that's number one thing you have to protect, it's gonna be hard. You can be done

But if you look at all the manipulation , all the greed , all the evil that's in this world right now , I would have to wait

Either that , or I'd have to move to a different country

Like , I used to tell my kids you are who you hang out with bottom line

Parent can only give a foundation that their child grows from and builds from

And in today's world, it would Be difficult but it can be done I say, if you want kids, you have them. It's the most beautiful thing you're ever gonna have in life. They will teach you more than you teach them guaranteed. But you have to weigh it out, you have to be practical and have common sense. If you can do it , I say , go for it , do it that you have prepared in many different ways

Like I said, II could not bring a child into this world today because you have to be there every 2nd of every single day with them for them, because you have to make them better than you. And if you can't do that , then do not have children

Because once they come into your life , you are responsible for who they become , by the way , you build their foundation for

It's evil to bring a kid into the world. Maybe not right now today, but who knows tomorrow. You have to really have your priorities straight. You need to own a house. You need to have $300000 into the big. And you need to understand you give up your whole life, which is worth it to raise your child. So it depends on you and who you are and how strong you are , because that's what it all is going to take

That is a very wise and accurate statement. Despite what the people with rose colored glasses want to say, the world  is  getting worse. And it's becoming more financially difficult to even have kids, much less buy a home. Socially it is also not a great place to raise them, in America anyway.

Fully agree! The ice caps are melting and centuries old bacteria is being released, there's a strong possibility for another pandemic and so.

My kid will definitely not cure cancer.

Also, I'm like higher caste in India which means I get zero benefits from government and stuff. I can't pass that.

Parental homes are getting kind of crowded. I can't be there because my kid is too selfish lmao

Disagree!  we are living in a much better place than throughout history with other wars and hardship people went through. Still they had kids.

MrChinaski · Answer

Maybe it's ex-post justification since I have already brought children into the world, but... it's not that bad.

I mean the number of people living in extreme poverty has fallen from about 2.3 billion in 1980 to about 800 million today (World Bank). I'm not sure progress that rapid has ever been achieved before.

Wars are actually at a fairly low level by historical standards. I know it doesn't feel that way because they get so much media coverage. It certainly doesn't feel that way if you are in Ukraine or Gaza. But, globally, wars are on the proverbial back burner.

Quite a few people are getting quite rich; others aren't but few are objectively going backwards over long periods of time.

The West is having a moment... but all things will pass... we just need to pause and ask...

As fucked up as it sounds today is the best day to ever be alive compared to any other time ever only surpassed by tomorrow. And the same thing is going to happen the next day and the next day and so forth.

As much as these worthless fucks who have given up on reality have claw there way to power they have ultimately squandered it without the ability to believe in a grand future.

DryGermanGuy · Answer

Practically nothing ever concerns the whole world, it’s more of a country to country observation. Just because the US-American society seems fucked up, the people in say, Switzerland, Portugal or Norway will still live their best lives. 🤔

AviatorTom · Answer

There are many benefits of having a child, especially emotional ones. Economic ones too.
At a bare minimum, it continues the human species.
If everyone felt the way you do, we humans would disappear from the planet.

Twalli · Answer

The world actually isn't terrible. I choose not to reproduce because my parents are literally the best I could have gotten. My life still hasn't been easy. My issues are genetic and I don't feel confident I could do what my parents have done for me for a kid.

katiesmuff · Answer

Nothing quite like holding that precious little 100% innocent person resting in your arms for the first time.

Anonymous · Answer

I’m not narcissistic. I’m genuinely a good person. I have always been told by others in my life I am well behaved, trustworthy and treat others well. I want to have kids. I think more people like me in the world would improve society.

Apulu_backagain · Answer

To be honest, depends on the life you are living. No one who can't afford children should have them, and by afford I mean higher than the bare minimum for a healthy childhood for the kid.

Vevv123 · Answer

Disagree, but at the same time it is scary to think that you will always be worried about your kids.
