How is not having kids selfish?

[CreepyMcCreeperson]

Having kids is selfish. They have to have the name you give them, live the same lifestyle as you, the interests you want them to have, the same political beliefs, and religion. And most parents will criticize their kids, and make them feel guilty for disappointing them if they go outside the lifestyle in which they were raised.

And most terrible people had terrible parents.

What if the whole.world decided not to have kids.

We'd be dead.

Selfish.

That said, do all you idiots need to be having kids, no.

shyt, I'll admit I'm selfish. Now what?

I'm going to LA in a couple weeks and I don't have to worry about shyt. I don't need a babysitter and I can work from home. Life is amazing.

Most people who don’t have kids don’t have a sense of interconmection with their community and thus they wouldn’t be as likely to invest aspects of society that are benefically for a child’s upbringing

Its a thing called being considerate of others is a way to look at it. Some of us don’t have asthma, but that don’t mean I’m gonna smoke or light up around a mfer who does

Might be the most ridiculous shyt I've ever read.

I guarantee Rosa Parks, James Baldwin, Harriet Tubman, Cicely Tyson, Little Richard, Dr. Seuss / Theodore Geisel, Jesus, Joan of Arc, Immanuel Kant, John F. Kennedy Jr., Mother Teresa, Louis Armstrong, Beethoven, George Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, Dolly Parton, Leonardo Da Vinci, Loretta Divine, Amelia Earhart, T.S. Eliot, Elizabeth I, Gloria Gaynor, Althea Gibson, Cecil Green, Daryl Hall, Elton John, and Helen Keller have contributed way more to society and communities than you have.

I agree but I think there's a difference between no children at all being born in the world versus a minority of people choosing to not to have kids.

With this logic we can apply it both ways the 20 something nursing home worker reaped the benefits of the previous generation's contribution to society. My tax dollars paid for their primary school education.

That mofo ain't a black fam, of course of buddy worried about sustaining cac govt. The same government that rapes it's citizens financially daily and has destroyed blk families for centuries. Maybe the govt should invest in its current citizens rather than worry about its subjugated work class and future consumers aka blk folk.

Anyways bringing a child into this world knowing damn well you can't afford one (which is majority of people currently) is MORE selfish imo

“If you don’t vote, then no one else will vote.”

“If you don’t vote, then no one else will vote.”

I'm in scriptures. This is all destined to fall. The devil can't be saved with a vote

 

[ThrobbingHood]

Our society/government cannot function at a certain point if no children are born to become workers/taxpayers. We all have to bear the sacrifice of raising children to keep things from descending into chaos. It’s collective action and those who don’t do it will still reap the benefits when some 20 something is wiping their 80 year old ass at a nursing home.

That’s the argument for why it’s selfish to not have kids. I see both sides of it though.

This is possibly the most CACist post I’ve ever read on here. “If you don’t have children, there’ll be less Human Resources for the government to exploit and leech from.”

Man, if you don’t get on with that bullshyt you bluefoot!

Edit: I remember you now. The same poster that was against people working from home. What a surprise. Another parasite groomed by the matrix.

If you’re that deep in the scriptures, then you should know this is the devil’s playground. Why bring children into a place that’s destined to fall?

Not having kids isnt selfish at all. I say this as a man with 4 sons I wouldnt trade for anything.

Selfish is having kids then not wanting them. I hate ppl like that.

I want all my money. fukk how you feel about it

It's literally like saying not getting bacon on your burger is selfish. Before you laugh think about it.

Everybody has a choice of what goes on their burger. Some like bacon. Others don't. Some can handle bacon better than others.

Having kids is a choice. Yes it carries way more responsibility but it's still all about choices. Folks shouldn't be judged for it. We as a human race need more self awareness as a whole. It leads to more happiness. If you don't want kids(regardless of the reason or even if you lack a reason) that is your choice.

Nothing against bacon on burgers by the way because I'll tear it up with cheddar cheese and mustard.

Not everyone has the right mind frame to be a parent. Just because you can reproduce doesnt mean that you should be a parent. Thats why theres adoption and even that, not everyone can be a parent and sometimes the wrong people are adopting the kids.

 

[Dameon Farrow]

Some people don’t need to have kids. This new generation of young adults, a decent amount of them are too emotionally stunted to raise kids. The rest don’t leave the house long enough to meet somebody. id rather shytty people not have kids and raise more shytty people.

Post is blunt but rings with truth. A lot of the damaged folks out here? It started in the home. But parents are like politicians.

If the child comes out perfect? Every facet of their early life? The parent accepts full responsibility for all of that.

If the child comes out fukked up? It simply had to be outside influences. A scapegoat is at the ready.

The stance that not everyone needs to be a parent is a scary one. It makes people from all walks uncomfortable. Too close to a cold truth.
