    While not everyone should have kids and I fully support people choosing not to have any…

    You can have this and have kids. Just not every day. Unless you’re stupid wealthy and have a nanny or something.

    But maybe I’m weird and am one of the few that actually like my kids and having them around. Sure, they can be a pain in the ass sometimes, but not so much that I want to escape them or anything.

      If you’re stupidly wealthy to have this daily? Kids are irrelevant.

      Reality is, people chronically online are incapable of raising a child because the reality is, they can’t imagine caring for someone other than themselves.

      Having a child to share your hobbies is awesome. You ever needed a coop buddy? They got you covered for years and years!

        The people with this sentiment are largely jaded women who skipped kids and have to cope themselves and the next generation into sharing their spinster misery. It’s a tale as old as time lol. It’s this very weird phenomenon specifically with women to want to spread their misery to other women. It’s a hyper competitive behavior that seems to peak in their 40s/50s
