this boards hypocrisy is great.

'WE NEED MORE CHILDREN!"

people who can't afford children have them and are on welfare

"POOR PEOPLE NEED TO STOP HAVING CHILDREN!"

This is something we should be talking about loudly, if we're producing people who don't want to have children then there's something seriously wrong our culture.

That’s a pretty fricked up thing to say. So if your kid needed a kidney you’d be willing to take one from another human against their will?

But for real, if in some world my kid needed a kidney to live and the doctor says he can acquire one by one way or another, it would be really hard to say no to that.

Indeed.

Nature takes care of this for us. The incapable will not reproduce. We need their bloodlines to die out.

This is a positive for society in the long run.

Some people want to have a good career and not have any significant expenses. I do agree though that having kids gives people a better sense of purpose in their lives.

There’s a lot to be said for someone that’s decided not to have kids and this is their take.

The cost of living is just too much for most people to bare. Bringing kids into the fold just adds to the costs. I can understand people saying they don’t want kids. I love my kids and my life, but I’d have a shite pile of money if it weren’t for them.

Having them young has some challenges, usually financial, and I'm mentally about age 60 at 46

I've said it before and I'll say it a million fricking times...

People who don't want kids SHOULD NOT have kids. It's as simple as that. They don't deserve to be shamed. They don't deserve any admonishment... nothing. If they don't want them, it's fricked up to pass any judgement.

I've got 3 and no lie, they're the absolute greatest thing that has ever happened in my entire life. I'm not just saying that because it seems like what I should say.. I mean it. But I think it's a special feeling. I don't think it just comes with the kids. You have to be preordained to have that.

People who don't want kids might be completely adverse to that. They may not be capable of that feeling... who knows?

But either way, it's grossly unfair to a kid to be born to parents who don't know for a fact that they want kids.

Don’t worry, Nick Cannon will have enough kids to repopulate the earth.
