School teachers make pennies yet I know multiple that have kids own a house etc.You bitch about welfare queens, but scoff at the opposite.
You don't know a ton about teacher salaries then. Lots of them in lots of places make good money it's public info. Also if it's a married female most have a husband that works also.School teachers make pennies yet I know multiple that have kids own a house etc.
All about priorities
If you wait for money to have kids you won’t have them, period. When you’re no longer the most important person in the world your priorities and behavior changes (for the better), and your level of happiness and contentment goes through the roof. Marriage is hard, but assuming you had a father and mother who loved you and put time and effort into raising you to be a whole human being (so you know what you’re doing), having kids Is like a force multiplier of love in your life. If you know, you know.You bitch about welfare queens, but scoff at the opposite.
In case some didn’t know, there is the answer.My family and kids come before anything else besides God.
The engagementDude! I didn’t know you settled down! Congrats!!!
Unintended consequence of the 1 child policy was the male heavy population.That’s a completely different situation that only has it involves having children linking it. You can have as many kids as you want here which makes up for those lacking children to an extent and there isn’t mass starvation in America. China didn’t have that option and couldn’t feed the people they had do to communism and was already a shit hole because of it. About 30 million people starved before the one child policy. the one child policy was just another failure brought on by other stupid ideas, not THE failure.
schools are building/expanding like crazy….thats not do to lack of children it’s do to crowded classrooms. though now it’ll be an argument about schools which isn’t the issue here and just be to change the subject. Family housing is being built like crazy even with shitty high pricing…must be the lack of kids.
I know about the subject, again my point was different situation.Unintended consequence of the 1 child policy was the male heavy population.
As we know in china males are considered more important than females.
Better jobs, higher pay and especially the custom of the oldest male taking care of the parents then being the head of the family.
It was very common for families to abort or abandon female children as they were seen as a burden in the future.
So for a time the available working population was very productive in comparison to a true “50-50” mix enabling the exponential growth.
That has now come to roost as we know.
The younger male population literally has no chance of having a spouse or family as there are more men then women.
So the average young Chinese male does not have the need for financial security /providing for family etc.
Which leads to work ethic and such.
Was a very well written article
Brought it up with a supplier I know for years who is US based but still goes back and forth with business in both sides.
Says the article was very close to reality, young men today will live several in a small cheap apartment because there is no reason to save.
Spoiled brats need a male influence too... and if the woke women are in charge... guess what... youre better than they are at everything.You make a lot of good points as well. However, some of the organizations and activities you mention have gone woke. If men get involved, and women are in charge, the men are marginalized. That's not to say that they are always mistreated.
It's that they are ignored and any insight they provide is ignored and possibly ridiculed. They just need the men around to do the heavy lifting and chores that involve brute strength.
Also any activity involving children on a volunteer basis involves the risk of false accusations about the men. Anything said that can be misconstrued will be misconstrued.
Some children involved in the aforementioned, wholesome, activities can be spoiled, woke brats that are just waiting to get attention. And it's not the type of attention that is good. The person getting the unwanted attention is usually the male volunteer.
I'm not saying that all of those groups are bad but caution is warranted.
So I missed the point as usual lolI know about the subject, again my point was different situation.
Plenty of well adjusted people just don't want kids, and that's okay. Just like it's okay for you to have kids.If you wait for money to have kids you won’t have them, period. When you’re no longer the most important person in the world your priorities and behavior changes (for the better), and your level of happiness and contentment goes through the roof.

If you know, you know.
He randomly brought it up equating it to this. It's not the same situation.So I missed the point as usual lol
Hmmm, we didn't know about you not wanting kids.....Guess I’m an asshole, I’ve never wanted kids.
I am not implying that men should give up because it’s hard but that we shouldn’t risk careers and/or our freedom to help an organization where wokeness is in charge because they will use every dirty trick to ruin you.Spoiled brats need a male influence too... and if the woke women are in charge... guess what... youre better than they are at everything.
Take their job.
This "give up and die because its hard" crap is why we are where we are.
Men neglected to fight and strive, because they where complacent to just complain instead.
no one cares, try harder.
Shred
I see your joke and no to both lolHmmm, we didn't know about you not wanting kids.....![]()
Funny part is so many on this site pride themselves for being brought up poor and making them tough etc…and how they wouldn’t change itPlenty of well adjusted people just don't want kids, and that's okay. Just like it's okay for you to have kids.
If you don't have the drive to have kids, doing it would be a stupid and terrible idea. You aren't a lesser person for not having them either.
The money thing is mostly devils advocate and another valid reason for many.
I've never said I was brought up poor. Hell, I used to not be "poor".Funny part is so many on this site pride themselves for being brought up poor and making them tough etc…and how they wouldn’t change it
Now the same are saying that money is a deciding issue for them having children or not
Just regular hide stuff
Not you …the rest …generic statement.I've never said I was brought up poor.
I just don't want kids, never sounded like something I wanted. Still I have several valid supporting factors in my decision.
She's beautiful ! And, as usual, your hair is, well........Marvelous !The engagementoccurred on 12/31/23. We met back in April '23. It's the best ever especially given my background of chasing stabbies. This woman is truly a blessing.
I didn't like being around kids when I was one. I was around adults 99% of the time I wasn't in school.Not you …the rest …generic statement.
Last few posts aren’t targeting you…just pissing in the wind
Every one their reasons
You are at least being truthful …very uncommon![]()
The hair really steals the show.She's beautiful ! And, as usual, your hair is, well........Marvelous !![]()
I don't think birth rates could compete with several thousand in a day at one point on the border.Its ok. We import enough people to compensate for low birth rates...

Always be willing to risk your job and freedom for what is right.I am not implying that men should give up because it’s hard but that we shouldn’t risk careers and/or our freedom to help an organization where wokeness is in charge because they will use every dirty trick to ruin you.
Don’t play games that are rigged against you unless you’re willing to risk your job or your freedom.
I didn’t equate itHe randomly brought it up equating it to this. It's not the same situation.
Lacking the want to have children isn't the same as lacking the opportunity.
I don’t like other peoples kids. I don’t like other peoples dog’s either. But I liked my dogsI didn't like being around kids when I was one. I was around adults 99% of the time I wasn't in school.
But the thought still doesn't appeal to me.I don’t like other peoples kids. I don’t like other peoples dog’s either. But I liked my dogs
Turned out to be the same for crotch goblins.
Im on the opposite spectrum of this thought. To me, having kids is the most selfish thing a person can do. Almost the most selfish thing possible in life.I guess I am in the minority. I absolutely love having kids and being married. Selfish having kids? Having kids is one of the least selfish acts a person can do. My family and kids come before anything else besides God. They are priority number one. If the world throughout history thought as many do here today, you wouldn’t exist. Selfish is only wanting for yourself and thinking having more material things makes you somehow happier and better. I wouldn’t trade my family for anything in the world. But I also loved my parents and I am grateful that they provided me with a wonderful life It’s cyclical.
You sound jaded. And If you view being a parent as being selfish then I just can’t follow you there. Having a family that you care about more than you could ever possibly care about yourself is a gift from God. I truly feel blessed and I am positive many others here feel the same way. If you are selfish, then you probably shouldn’t be a parent. Parenting is the exact opposite.Im on the opposite spectrum of this thought. To me, having kids is the most selfish thing a person can do. Almost the most selfish thing possible in life.
You cant gaurantee that your offspring are going to have all limbs, you cant gurantee mental health, you cant guarantee their happiness. Its never been about money, desire, or the work required for me personally. When you and a woman make a choice to have a child, it is exactly that, your choice and not the childs. Youre being selfish! Serving yourself with hopes of happiness they might bring, which they do.
Im not a holy man, but Im sure the above could be argued about gods will, and I accept that stance. My choice was to get snipped at 22. Not for selfish reasons, not to whore around, but rather so I didnt have to subject any children to the damage my parents did to me.
I did raise three oustanding step kids, that all departed my life because their mom was more concerned about absorbing the wealth I created for myself, long before I met her. That goal was more important to her rather than keeping the only father figure her children had.
Its funny, becaue I notice from their social media the two girls are almost complete with engineering school, following my foot steps in life and not hers.
Such is life. Im good with all my choices and the way life has developed for me.
I know I created three contributing members of society, without having any kids. If left to their biological parents, they might have become a drain on society, or maybe not.
I just cant imagine engaging with the type of females out there today. When I watch some of them, Im thoughly disgusted with them.
Im 100% of the mindset I was born three generations late in life.
It's not free... You paid for it.They either do not participate or they get everything as a handout for free
100% jaded, which is my point. As long as a couple can live a healthy, moral life and raise healthy moral children, fucking fantastic, and I mean the with every part of my soul.You sound jaded.

Is feature not bug.
We should have french Revolutioned the oligarchy decades ago.
Must be who you hang out with. Both my wife’s and my parents never divorced and stayed together. In my group of friends, we are all still married with kids. My wife and I have been together for over 13 years been married for almost 12. I agree with the poster above. Life just like marriage or any other human endeavor, it is what you put into it.100% jaded, which is my point. As long as a couple can live a healthy, moral life and raise healthy moral children, fucking fantastic, and I mean the with every part of my soul.
The problem is, society is stacked against men. Especially middle class men. I dont know your age, but if under 40, there is a better chance than not, your family will be broken before you reach the end of life. Its not my opinion, its stastical facts.
Think about all the people you know that have kids leaving the house and one of the spouses going too. Its a lot. Then to watch everything you built pulled from you, its enough to encourage young men to avoid women, thus children at all cost.
Next time youre in a resturant, look around at families. I do this a lot when out, the men look miserable 80% of the time. They look beatdown. The conversations are usually absent of their voice.
There is a better chance than not, right now your wife is engaged in some sort of affair online or at work. It might be physical or it might be non-physical. And by "your", Im implying the reader not you specifically. Grab her phone, dont even try to open it, and see what the reaction is. That'll pretty much sum up your relationship.
Remember, when the marriage collapses, the kids become the victims. Your selfless act of parenting just bought them years of anguish.
Again, I hate that is the world weve created, but its the world weve created.
Want to be a parent as a man, save a childs life and adopt!
Google the stastics of single men raising children and single women raising children. Its astonishing.
I think my seed will take in you eventually, just have to keep trying.akmike hasn't figured out yet that butt sex with men doesn't lead to kids, don't spoil it for him![]()
Yeah, reminds me that it takes guts to be an organ donor. Logic I can get behind.In retrospect, having kids is a dick move.
Might want to change your batteries, the bulb has gone dim.Selfish having kids? Having kids is one of the least selfish acts a person can do. My family and kids come before anything else besides God. They are priority number one.
Nah. They are full strength and super charged.Might want to change your batteries, the bulb has gone dim.
I tried to read this several times with an open mind.Some of you in here the insights into your lives are being for amazing.
Yeah, you kind of have to read between the lines with me. The insights to peoples lives as they post online are amazing.I tried to read this several times with an open mind.
I can make no sense of it.
Can anyone translate or reword it so it is in english or something ?
No tingua nada (I've got nothing).
