Why the Choice to Be Childless is Bad for America

[Asclepias]

Sure I do you had kids for some kind of personal validation

Nope. Each of my kids were totally unplanned. See? I told you that you had absolutely no clue.

So you live your life without a plan and now you think of your kids as some sort of medal to pin on your chest.

You like most people don't even know why you had kids you just blindly followed the get married and have kids brainwashing

You sound foolish. You cant plan everything that is going to happen to you in life. Thats a free life tip by the way. I plan certain aspects of my life. My kids were all unplanned. Didnt stop me from making a success out of my life and frankly they were driving force. Yes my kids feel like winning the lotto to be honest. Everytime they smile. Everytime they say something that astounds me with its clarity and innocence. Everytime the do something and get a win.

Most people understand if they have sex they will have a kid. Having a child is not something you ask why. That would be like asking why you should take another breath. Its nature and what every life form on the planet was meant to do. Procreate. All you can do is thank whatever force that gave you the ability to have a child.

You can certainly plan whether or not you're going to have kids. And most people know that sex doesn't have to result in pregnancy.
I wonder how your kids will react when you tell them why you had them.

"Well kids I was meant to procreate that's all there is to it"

Children are a punishment, you he is being punished. Obama explained that.

No wonder white people are dying out. They think kids are punishment? Nothing like helping to create a life, watching it grow as you shape it, watching it take your teachings and adapt them to his or her own temperament, then stepping out in the world to make it a better place.

 

[Asclepias]

If you aren't 100% committed to having kids then it is a very responsible decision to not have them IMO.

True. If you are not in it for the long haul or you cant even take care of yourself then you are not being responsible by having children. You need to get your shit together mentally before or the minute you realize you have created a life.

I know two families with history of schizophrenia. Each of them (at the time) consisted of an apparently normal pair of parents, each of whom had siblings afflicted. One of the couples did a little family research and found the pattern in each of the two preceding generations and chose not to have children.

The other couple ignored the sibling problem (on one side, hers) and purposely did not look into family history. They now have four children who survived into middle age. All of them had two or more children in young adulthood. Of the original four children one is, in late middle age, institutionalied; another functions under heavy medication. Of the grandchildren, one schizoid from early teens. The others? We'll see.

So was it wrong for the couple who decided not to reproduce to have come to that decision?

Depends on what you mean by "wrong". My family has a history of addiction to various substances like drugs and alcohol. It didnt stop me from wanting and having children. I did tell my children about the family history and to stay away from those things.

I don't think they are a punishment, Obama said they were a punishment. I think my kids are a blessing.

 

[WinterBorn]

My kids are my greatest joy, even after they have grown up. But, having said that, the idea that someone would have children out of some sense of patriotic duty is absolutely insane. I don't care what nonsense is spouted, the decision to have kids is personal not public.

 

[Gagafritz]

I just don't believe my life would have been fulfilled without children. It is one of life's greatest blessings. I think the desire to have children is very deep. However, it isn't my business if you don't have children. But, in my experience, those who don't tend to talk about children in derogatory terms. Making snide comments and remarks. The respect needs to go both ways.

You must have listened to the alt right to make that claim. You have a white guy on this very thread that says children are a punishment but yet you want to claim Obama said it.while taking his words out of context. Obama was speaking about abortion and why he backed it.
