Why so cranky and judgy IA? Aren't you supposed to be in a blissful oxytocin miasma? Not getting enough sleep?

Jealousy seems to be a side effect of having children before you turn thirty. I'm glad my tax money is going to educate young minds; it's the self righteous parents I can't stand. You are no less selfish than someone who chooses not to have children in a world full of people. In fact, dredging up the old trope about being alone when you are old means you are primarily concerned about your own loneliness. When you'll expect your child to wipe your ass like you currently wipe theirs. Except they will probably just put you in a home, so they can worry about their own lives. Good luck with that. Maybe wait a few years before you have your next child. It isn't about you, it's about your child(ren).

Ha ha. What a crock. Seems someone is upset that they didn't use protection. Also, the statistics show that only a small % of American children are actually around to provide care to their elderly parents. Yes, you will end up in a "home" just like all the rest of your friends....with the only difference being that the ones without kids will have several hundred $thousand more to put toward retirement and long-term care than they would have if they would have popped out a kid.

Breeders are predictable. Tiresomely, boringly, predictably predictable.
They'll always say something that is an obvious fact, that is as good for supporting their rant as any other fact. "Grown up babies take care of older humans!" Well, yeah, as long as the human race is around, babies grow up. People use oxygen. Two plus two equals four.
None of it supports another militant mommy who hurled a baby from her bloody flanks, because her place in life is to be a mobile incubator.
Overpopulation drives pretty much all the problems she wants to think about as separate issues, or not think about as she plays house. It pretty much drives the city "growth" she likes to compartmentalize in her mind and blame on "people moving in here after I did". It pretty much drives landfill, deforestation, urban sprawl, paving over land, housing shortages, food shortages, landfill, water shortages, air pollution, crime, crowding, scarcity of resources, sewage overload, crowding, traffic congestion as her baby grows up and drives, or turns into a self-righteous hippie who thinks not using a clothes dryer makes up for squeezing out another little carbon footprint to feed, factory farming, death of ocean life, over-fishing, extinction, loss of rainforest, loss of habitat, crime. The crime rate decreased -- no one could figure it out until Freakonomics showed that it decreased 17 years after abortion became legal.
Anyway, all the things she hates and wants to snipe about, or gets depressed about once her oxytocin high wears off, are worsened by her squeezing out another diaper-loader.

That's not even getting down to the personal issue of her being jealous of childfree people with, you know, real lives.

Please wait...
