TIME Magazine Glamorizes Life Without Children
(http://truthstreammedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/time-620x400.jpg)
"The smart, educated, well-bred people have stopped reproducing.
The not-so-bright Rachel Jeantels of the world are breeding like rabbits.
We are *LIVING* "Idiocracy."
Scary times indeed."
-
Never wanted them, have brothers who have them, get constant jealousy about how I have a free lifestyle, Ive never spent a second being jealous they have kids, fairly easy decision if you listen to your head.
-
ppl without long-term goals and plans tend to reproduce... and the children of ppl without long term goals and plans carry on the same bullshit.
"oh, i'm pregnant?! woohoo... oh wait, I can't afford a baby? I work at a Mexican restaurant with no long term career goals? oh well.. baby's are cute and i'll have a lifelong companion!!"
Seriously... I have a 42yr old client, dumb as shit. Rent's a room in a 2 family home and can barely afford that.. and can barely afford her 3x/week group training. Says she wants a baby because she'll "have a friend for life, and a companion". Asks me if i'd get her pregnant! WTF woman.. get a fucking DOG if you want a companion. 42yrs old and works 3 days a week as a caretaker for a weathly old woman at a country club and has ZERO experience doing anything else. I was very tempted to take her up on the offer, but since she was unaware that with the amount of testosterone I use, i'd never Knock her up without HCG/Clomid. lol... she's not bad lookin, dark hair latina, petite, with huge tits... but if I banged her, i'd probably lose her as a client, eventually.. I'd rather have the money. lol

Can't you fools see what is so clear? The left wing media wants the white male to stop reproducing. They don't mind if the white female reproduces, as long as it is with some others

Very true and smart of you to realize that

You are probably right but the idea of having kids just sounds awful.

You are probably right but the idea of having kids just sounds awful.
They for you programmed too, huh?
I have friends who are married, with kids...yes, there is a struggle, as it probably was with your parents. But, you see the pride in their faces---baby's first steps, first words, learns how to read, their grades, etc. I marvel at what my parents have passed down to me, and I see what my friends are passing to their children.
There is no such thing as "having it all", just seems like code for being selfish, spoiled, and greedy...I wonder what this is a product of...of which generation...hmmm.
By the way, there is an attack on men, thru the media, thru our society. Whether they be black, white, Latino, or Asian. And the woman who benefits, well she's the one who has been placed on a pedestal the whole time...

I have two sons 8 and 10 and they are the best thing in my wonderful life.

Finances are obviously a strong point for you "Money Man" ;D
Dem kiddos be expensive, if you raise them correctly.
-
dont you think the people are able to decide for themselves whether they want kids or not, based on own opinion? ::)
do you really really think someone gonna base their decision on a newspaper article?do you think ppl are that stupid, do you think youre soo much smarter than them ::)
Learn how to spell before you address me, you gray haired old goat.

-
And worth every penny.
hard to convince someone who has no kids. You have to experience life with having kids around to appreciate how blessed you really are.
As you said its worth every single penny.
-
And worth every penny.
I don't have the energy to raise a kid
-
Finances are obviously a strong point for you "Money Man" ;D
Dem kiddos be expensive, if you raise them correctly.
And expensive if you don't raise them correctly. Therapist fees, prescription drug fees, juvenile detention, rehab, once they hit 18 and are still acting up, bondsmen fees, court fees, attorney fees.
-
Those great kids....who 90% of the time throw you in a home and cant wait to get your Will money
-

At what age does it become the kid's fault for being a fuck up? When their kids become fuck ups too?
-
As a general rule I don't discuss my family online but....I decided it was time to have children when I had accomplished all that I could within my means. Professional achievments, personal goals, travel etc...In fact, by the time I was ready I had almost become bored with life. When I decided I wanted children, me and my wife came up with a plan. We invested enough money to pay for our future childrens college. Then we moved to a city that we felt would provide enough culture and opportunity that would help shape successful children.
Now that I have children I am can say it is hard work. But nothing else really matters either. I'm glad I got all of those other experiences out of the way because it would be almost impossible to do now, aside from work related achievments. Travel is too difficult, time managment is too difficult, child care is too expensive, schooling (outside of public schooling) is too expensive. Children can really test your value as a person.
For those who don't have children, there are no words though for expressing the rewards of having loving children. So I will not try to explain.
Alot of people say stupid shit like: well my dogs are like my children, or I have pets. Well I'm a dog lover and I have had dogs run away, one got hit by a car and I got over it. If anything ever happened to my children I think I just die from heartache.

True, but although you can't imagine living life without them or wouldn't want to, doesn't mean you would not have been happier without them, people confuse the 2.

Humans are fucked either way. Pretty sure if you have kids at this point they'll live to see and experience widespread pain and suffering. A plague or nuclear winter.

I was a touring musician for years and hate condoms. I probably have a few hundred little bastards out there somewhere.

, people confuse the 2.
They don't confuse the 2 because they experienced both.
-

When they become adults. Once you are 18 and start to catch cases, that's on you...problem is, these are the same people that procreate like mad...and then their kids have problems. And it's not just the poor, there are plenty of rich people as well that have effed up kids. Plenty of celebrities, that if they weren't celebrities would have been locked up....and what do you know XYZ is having a kid...and name the child Cottonmouth Diamondback Williams...who is raised by the nanny, because the parent (s) have other things to do.

I had a child when I was 34. I lived quite a bit before I had a child....and I'm far happier with my daughter in this world than I was before.
I'm not even going to try to explain it. my kid is the best thing that ever happened to me, and I have had a very eventful life. You guys just don't grasp the happiness of watching your kid get onstage for her violin recital, that she has been nervous about for a week, and she nails it. you live and die with your child.

That seems to be the case. However, you can provide your children with all that it takes to be successful. You can be loving, nurturing, find good schools, find the right mix of parenting and friendship. Ultimately they will become adults and make decisions for themselves but if you raise them right, they don't have to be a part of the suffering.
The problem now is the wrong people are having children with no thought, no means, no responsibility. Instead of children they have fuck trophies. They look at children as a way to get state aid. And thats the reason humans are fucked either way.

Can we read the article online or do we have to buy the magazine.

I bet you went thru yrs of hearing her hit the wrong notes, and playing Hot Cross Buns, to now hearing the vibrato and the notes becoming clearer. Her bowing becoming insynch with the other violinists. You see growth, experience, and accomplishment. And your pride. Something that cannot be explained to those who don't have kids.

Staying child free is one of the best choices someone can make, also for this planet.
The next step should be the worldwide introduction of eugenic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugenics) principles and a one child policy.

No..no...but I hope you feel the joy one day when you're ready! I love my monkeys....and don't mind that they shattered the glass on a new 65" plasma throwing shit in the livingroom :'(

RIP plasma TV :o
I'm not in my twenties anymore, so I'm sure as hell that I don't want them for multiple reasons, not only for the possible damage in my house ;D
I'm happy for anyone who love to have them, but I feel sorry for those who need them to become/stay happy, that's dependent happiness.

I was plenty happy before I had my child.....now I'm happy-er ;)
I dont recall saying I was unhappy before , but thanks for making some shit up.

you have to experience both, life without child and life with a child in order to compare.

Samsung replaced the glass for only service call fee.........no shit, plug for the company, they were great. Monkeys got locked in their cages for a couple of days then broke more stuff....oldest one closed the automatic garage door while the Sequoias Platinums trunk was open....that was nice :-X

Funniest one I ever had was I had just gotten a brand spanking new cell phone. was sitting by the pool reading the manual...little munchkin picks it up and throws it in the pool.....didn't even turn the fkng thing on. you just gotta laugh.

Well, children aren't like clothes, so I can't do that. I've had several exes with children, those were my closest experiences, never again!

I always wanted children. I have a four month old, and plan on having at least one more, if not two more. The fact is, it might be hubris on my part, but I was someone's child, so it's not like I can say its a bad thing to have a child. The only thing, you have to be prepared. Not to toot my own horn, as I'm sure there are a lot of get biggers, as well as a ton of other people, but my wife and I are pretty intelligent people and are reasonably successful. We are the types of folks who need to be having children, not shaquita or billy rae. The world will be doomed when these idiots out breed us.

No, but I dread the day.....have 5 fire extinguishers at the house just for such special occasion. And I know what you mean....my wife was watching the 3 of them kill each other over what TV show they were going to watch suddenly turned to me and said...."I was a professional athlete and a dentist" with a befuddled look....I just started lol'ing uncontrollably.....

First of all, congratulations on becoming a dad.
Man, this is such a delicate subject, so I always find it hard to discuss my objections with parents, but I def share your worries about less successful folks, who start huge families. I believe that politicians should put this on their agendas, just to start with.

I was very unsure.. I knew eventually I wanted a family with the right woman. After I got married, my wife got off her B/C for a year since she had be on the pill since she was 14, and the doc said it may be a good idea to give her body a rest. Almost exactly a year to the day she stopped taking it, she got pregnant.
I was scared shitless. Even after my son was born I was still in shock and not dealing very well.... fast forward 9 months later, I couldn't imagine my life without my son. It is a wholly different experience, and gratifying in a totally different way. Even though we're not in the best of financial shape, he is well worth the overtime and weekends helping out at a second job.
My wife stays home because we wanted him to be raised by us, not by daycare. I wind up working 50-55 hours a week to maintain a decent lifestyle for us and I have absolutely no regrets about having him.
It did take quite a while before I really became attached to him though, in the beginning, I had a hard time bonding with the little lump of flesh that did nothing but scream and shit. Lol. As it is now, were debating about trying for a girl a few years down the road once my career advances a little more. But for right now, we're quite content with our simple life.

Congrats....me and my wife chose the same path.

First one arrives in November. Waited till I was 38, settled, married for 14 years, had savings and a job that pays very good money to start though. Can afford to have the wife at home fulltime and private school when they're ready.
Did a lot of living in my 20s and a lot of learning in my 30s. Seems a good time for a new adventure.

Why does every married man i know with kids,almost without fail end up jealous that I can fuck hot bitches, do what I want, go where I want when I want?Surely this radiant happiness should mean no jealousy?

Sarcasm aside, you arnt Joe public tho, still retained a good physique, decent looking (no homo), hot wife.most guys I see seem sick of the wife, fat, brat kids, balding etc.I get the feeling most just gave in to the wife's demands and if could turn back the clock would rather be single.

My wife stays home because we wanted him to be raised by us, not by daycare. I wind up working 50-55 hours a week to maintain a decent lifestyle for us and I have absolutely no regrets about having him.
It did take quite a while before I really became attached to him though, in the beginning, I had a hard time bonding with the little lump of flesh that did nothing but scream and shit. Lol. As it is now, were debating about trying for a girl a few years down the road once my career advances a little more. But for right now, we're quite content with our simple life.
It's funny what you said about bonding. I had to explain it to my wife, that I didn't grow him in my body, and that he was usually fussy when I got home, and I didn't have tits to feed him. Took about 8-9 weeks, and the feeling I have and joy I get from seeing him(no homo) grows everyday. Thing is, my buddies who have kids, all said the same thing. It must be universal, that is, if you are there and in their life. I have anshitbag buddy who is a deadbeat, and while I can see where someone would be overwhelmed with it all, there's no way I could abandon him.

Wait until he starts walking , is he trying to stand up yet ?
Oh yes, he lets go of whatever hes pulled himself up on and tries to take a step, and promptly falls on his butt every time. Kid is huge too, 97th percentile for length and 95th percentile for weight. He's the same size as my sisters 2.5 year old son.

Why does every married man i know with kids,almost without fail end up jealous that I can fuck hot bitches, do what I want, go where I want when I want?Surely this radiant happiness should mean no jealousy?
Because you can fuck hot bitches with no strings attached. Neither one is a choice without it's detractions... you trade off getting to do whatever you want with whoever you want, for companionship, love, and family. It's 2 totally different worlds, and most people get nostalgic or get stuck on the negative while their buddies seem to be having the time of their lives. As Tedim said, grass is greener syndrome.
Both lives have their perks.... I was having fun being single and doing what I wanted, and my wife literally fell in my lap. We got married and going through life with a companion is totally different from having no one but yourself. Some people love it, others don't. Just as some people want to have a family, others don't want to deal with anyone or anything but their own wants and interests.
I think having kids with the wrong woman, or getting married just to "get married and have the 2.5 kids, white picket fence, etc, etc" is a recipie for failure... I lived hard in my 20's. Now, In my late 20's, I just want someone to go through life with that I enjoy being around and still gives me a boner every time I see her bend over. I got married to the right woman. Luckily.

Yeah, that makes no sense. Children aren't for everyone, some people simply aren't going to be able to bond/get the joy out of children than others, and those people should not have kids. Having kids when you have no desire to raise them, IMHO, is criminal and should be grounds for mandatory sterilization.
My friends brother got a vasectomy at 24, he's married and loves his life. He has no desire to have kids, he wants to go on vacations, spend ridiculous money on his metrosexual attire and hair, and generally make people question his sexuality. And thats fine, I'd rather have someone not have kids, than have kids and be a burden on society, sucking up funds and resources.
Completely agree with your stance on this one Adam.

The problem I see is so many diagnosed and un-diagnosed mentally ill people having kids...Kids are fukced before they even know what hit them...
-
I see parents that have no control over their children. my kid wouldn't dream to act like that. We go out to eat quite often and we have a dandy time.

Not having kids = A tiny foot note in history
Having kids = Being part of an ongoing story. Being a chapter in a larger narrative. Feeling a love that you could never have imagined. Realizing that life is no longer about you and finding meaning in that.

Maybe I am an optimist, but I think most people who are scared to have kids make the BEST parents. I'm not saying I'm a good parent, but I never planned to get married and never planned to have any kids and now I have a fucking shit load of them. ;D
God damn, they are cute as hell though. :o

Because its not true. And people who have kids it's not socially acceptable to say they would rather not have them. Yes many act like it, but few come out and say it.

ummm. how would you know. this is EXACTLY what I mean. a guy that has no kids "knows" that most people with they didn't have them.....OK then
I have had hundreds of conversations with other parents and I can't remember anyone ever giving the slightest inclination they wish they never had kids....but you know better....ha ha

I guess I just see it differently. I think that life (and reality) is a series of ever more complicated narratives. Each story, in some small way, builds on the last. And sometimes the smallest stories have the most meaning.

Yes i do thanks for seeing that stud. Key work conversations. Just observe people you can tell they were happier before having kids. They don't come out and say it. I'm sure there some upsides to having kids by I stand by my statements. If you don't believe me ask True Adonis, he has no interest in having kids and posts all those witty ecards.

Not gonna lie - this one made me LOL, though I'm on the different side of the fence in regards to wanting kids... but nevertheless, it was funny ;D

If you believe that consciousness gives life meaning and that the additive consciousness effect of familial narrative storytelling has a compound effect on how the universe is perceived and granted meaning by the gift of our perception, then yes, family is really the only game in town.

I just have this crazy idea that reality is some kind of factory for creating stories.
It's just hard to explain to someone how it feels to hold your kid in your arms after they have fallen and skinned their knee. You want to protect them from all the evil in the world. You want to warn them that a little cut is nothing, that so many horrors await, but you say nothing. Most of all you just love them. It's not a feeling that you can explain in words.

so you had some conversations at work, with some parents of young children that were venting, because kids are WORK....and you asssume.this to mean they wish they never had kids...because you can "tell"...even though they never actually say it.
here's the difference...while you make gigantic assumptions, I have lived 34 years on this planet as a very good looking, muscular charming guy who could fuck any woman he wanted, had money to do whatever I felt like...lived the life.
I also have been parent for over decade. So I have LIVED both sides of the coin....And part 2 of my life beats the shit out of part 1. To each their own, nobody is swaying anyone's beliefs anytime soon.
so I propose you go back to doing whatever it is you enjoy, Adonis goes and waters some plants, and I'll enjoy my child......and we can stop taking shots at each other when nobody is right or wrong.......LOL
just remember to thank your parents they didn't feel like you
-
Yea man just different opinions no big deal here. Though I could give a fuck less if my parents had me or not, it's not like I would have known anything if I never existed.
Watering plants. ;D always thought his hobby was cooking.

Not to beat this to death, but you are alive dude...and I can only assume you're semi-glad to be alive
having a child is giving the gift of life to another, someone that is an extension of you, and at the same time their own person..it's the usual cop-out, but it's true...you can't explain to someone what that feels like.....that bone-deep connection and unconditional love you have. if you are normal...LOL.... I hug my daughter and kiss her on the top of her head so often I don't even realize I'm doing it.
-
My friends who have kids say they would never be without them. Life has changed for the better, they have grown in ways they never imagined they would, there is more meaning in everything, and every sacrifice is worth it.
My friends without kids say they never think about having them, that life is fantastic, that their relationships are solid and happy, career is exactly what they want or better, that they have the money and freedom to really enjoy life in ways that many of the people around them cannot.
So everyone's happy!
I will say that of my child having friends, a lot of them have said at one time or another that they wouldn't do it again if they had the choice. They love their kids and wouldn't be without them, but they wouldn't choose the same path if they could. Maybe it was sleeplessness and stress speaking. One friend described it as "Lots of joy, not a lot of happiness".
-
Alot of people say stupid shit like: well my dogs are like my children, or I have pets. Well I'm a dog lover and I have had dogs run away, one got hit by a car and I got over it. If anything ever happened to my children I think I just die from heartache.
Many people get over the loss of a child and get on with their lives, sure they never forget, but time is a healer and you just remember the good times.

Good overall summation. There's are so many factors that will contribute to the overall opinion. How much time you have, how much money, your overall situation with your partner, etc... Raising children could be a big mistake for some or a true blessing for others but to suggest one or the other is the true answer is a pointless argument to make.

I was happy before I had kids.
I'm happy after having had kids.
When I didn't have kids, I thought I'd never want to have kids and enjoyed my life and my own self-driven pursuits
Now that I have kids, I think how my life would be broken if something happened to them, and I have enjoyed changing my pursuits to ensure the outcome helps my children thrive.
Life is a long journey. One should experience it all. For some of us, that means having kids. For others, not so much.
There is no doubt; one can be very happy in life having never had kids and never wanting them. One can also be happy having kids, and loving them.
Like the old country song goes: if you can't please everyone, well then, you have to please yourself.

I have a buddy who doesn't want kids. He told me, he asked his wife, "do you want everything, or do you want kids?" The fact is, it's a personal decision, and the shitty thing is, most of the people who don't want them, should be the ones procreating. Adonis et al seem to be intelligent people, and their DNA should be passed on, not dumbfucks like these trailer and ghetto trash humans. I am financially and mentally stable, have a kid, and still do what I want. I'm going to Europe for 17 days this Christmas, bringing my kid, and my mom as a babysitter. I will do this every other year, as I want my kids to be cultured.
Life is about being happy, and not being a dick to others. Whichever your choice, it's obviously the one for you, and that's good.

They for you programmed too, huh?
I have friends who are married, with kids...yes, there is a struggle, as it probably was with your parents. But, you see the pride in their faces---baby's first steps, first words, learns how to read, their grades, etc. I marvel at what my parents have passed down to me, and I see what my friends are passing to their children.
There is no such thing as "having it all", just seems like code for being selfish, spoiled, and greedy...I wonder what this is a product of...of which generation...hmmm.
By the way, there is an attack on men, thru the media, thru our society. Whether they be black, white, Latino, or Asian. And the woman who benefits, well she's the one who has been placed on a pedestal the whole time...
Agree whole-heartedly with that last paragraph, though I'm not sure how it relates to the subject at hand.
I've been a Christian since 1998, and I never wanted kids up until a few weeks ago. I'm still not sold on the idsa, but I think He's telling me to leave the option on the table. Time will tell.

The "heat-affected zones" are in the eastern parts of the world and in Africa. Regarding the western world, most over population growth is caused by less successful people, as Irongrip already pointed out. The U.S. might have a moderate population density, but the situation is different here in the Netherlands (comparable with Japan and Singapore).

Regarding the western world, most over population growth is caused by less successful people, as Irongrip already pointed out. The U.S. might have a moderate population density, but the situation is different here in the Netherlands (comparable with Japan and Singapore).
We have one political party, the Republican Party, hell bent on ensuring that this will happen due to their stance on abortion and ensuing State governments restricting it by making it next to impossible to obtain. If any government program should have funding increased its this one.

If a man or a women have a kid with someone they end of hating with a passion who ends up being batshit crazy, how is it possible for them to look at their genetic spawn and not think with an open mind that the kid is probably fukced and that they made a huge mistake? Crazy doesn't skip generations...It's always there waiting to come out...

well ...hate to piss in everyone's corn flakes, but 81% of males have children. So I'll be seeing you all at The Children's Place.....HAHAHA :D

This is not the first children debate on GB. I believe that 50-60% don't want them, must be our BBing nature...

I don't think you are following..81,% of all males pump out a kid in their life...even the ones who pound their first swearing they will never have kids. I said the same thing when I was 20, 30 years old.

Couldnt imagine life without my kids, nothing in life has ever compared to the feeling of seeing your kids happy. Their birthdays and christmas is the highlight of the year for me.
Not saying i didnt enjoy the single life of getting pissed every weekend and going on lads hols ect but far prefer life now .
-
sincerely life would be grand without a child
you can just kick woman to the mean streets and stack your money to spend on vials of questionable bath tub solutions
-
I have no kids and zero desire to have any. My brother has two kids and seems to enjoy life, to each their own.

I get what you mean, but not all categories have the same statistic outcome. For example, religious people are prob much more family oriented than most bodybuilders.
BTW, I'm over 30 ;)

I don`t really like people at all. :D Animals yes, people no.

"The smart, educated, well-bred people have stopped reproducing.
The not-so-bright Rachel Jeantels of the world are breeding like rabbits.
We are *LIVING* "Idiocracy."
Well the article is correct. Worthless ignorant uneducated scum have the most kids whilst your educated, rich and responsible people don't.
I frankly don't see the outrage.

Not having kids = A tiny foot note in history
Having kids = Being part of an ongoing story. Being a chapter in a larger narrative. Feeling a love that you could never have imagined. Realizing that life is no longer about you and finding meaning in that.
You imagine that most people's stories are worth telling? Haha, who gives a fuck about Joe Blow that works as a mechanic, lives his life in debt and noise and die? I'm not saying kids are terrible and all doom, but I get fucking annoyed when people say 'oh, it's a continuation of my genes'. Yea bud, like the world can't do without a short ugly obese bald dickhead that lives his life in debt. Deffo need more of those people pal.

Is this real ? The family ideal seems to be all over the internet. People posting pics of kids all over facebook.
Any true Alpha would want to reproduce. Its as close to a meaning in life you will ever get.
There is nothing as sad as a lonely 60 year old with no family, just filling their life with materialistic crap.

I have a buddy who doesn't want kids. He told me, he asked his wife, "do you want everything, or do you want kids?" The fact is, it's a personal decision, and the shitty thing is, most of the people who don't want them, should be the ones procreating. Adonis et al seem to be intelligent people, and their DNA should be passed on, not dumbfucks like these trailer and ghetto trash humans. I am financially and mentally stable, have a kid, and still do what I want. I'm going to Europe for 17 days this Christmas, bringing my kid, and my mom as a babysitter. I will do this every other year, as I want my kids to be cultured.
Life is about being happy, and not being a dick to others. Whichever your choice, it's obviously the one for you, and that's good.
You dont get it. smart, intelligent people, are unhappy because they realize how vain and bestial life is at its core. Only dumb people can "love" and "feel", arent drowning in their cynicism, this is why they procreate while "intelligent" people dont, as simple as that. Again, intelligence has nothing to do with hapiness; dumb people are often a lot more happier than smart people.
All our behaviors and thoughts processes are animalistic in the first place, we want kids for the same reasons other animal species "want offsprings". Fact is we dont "want" shit, all of this is preprogrammed behaviors, it's genetical. Those who "choose" not to have kids simply despise life and other living beings, they are sociopaths and they want mankind to disapear. They ll probably disapear, those who will stay will evolve to adapt to whatever happen on earth. As simple as that.
Oh btw,mankind is divided into two main categories; poor dumb people who want to be rich, and smart rich people who want to stay rich and manipulate, dominate the poor and keep them below themselves.

But yet you don`t support abortion. Where is the logic in that? ::)
MOS is supportive of self-professed egocentric Getbiggers not becoming pregnant.
Although, MOS doesn’t support abortion.
Therefore, MOS should support abortion because it supports self-professed egocentric Getbiggers not becoming pregnant.
Did we find the logic? No, but we did find a non sequitur.

Noone who survives easily whatever the way he survives while others are struggling can be considered as being dumb. Doing less and getting more is actually a sign of intelligence.
A perfect human being has it all, beauty, health, strenght, meaningful relationship with equivalent wife and kids / grandparents and money. Everytime someone lacks something , when a branch of the tree is missing, he feels miserable, frustrated about it, even if the others branches are there. Still this person can ruin it all sinning.

Paris Hilton and Kim K are pretty smart girls, I knew it from the beginning....

if you are a successful man with a high income you can have kids and still all you want
if you are a low income joe average you can either be a single frugal man who lacks nothing or have a family and be lacking money, your wife and kids will not respect you because money is tight but still eat your money like vultures. basically you will be miserable
i think
so...
i dont know

You "childless" cannot understand the joy of coming home and seeing this.....for no particular reason.

I have a different perspective. I have been very close to my sister's son (he is 5) since birth. I can say that I have helped raise him. I love the kid to death, but I enjoy the fact that I can have my alone time whenever I want.
I know everything would change if I had my own child.

Fucking libs trying to change minds to suit they're fucked up agenda when it's a personal choice. Considering they can't get anything right with their warped thinking, this is just one other thing they should keep out of.

I guess if its not broke don't fix it.
Like someone else in the thread said: without kids you are happier but with kids there is more joy. I think tha is accurate.

There's a personal choice, but there's freedom of speech as well.

Some very rich circles of Elite who are in tune with being sociopath's believe that they are another breed of human totally different from everyone else...There goal is to find other sociopath's to breed with...FYI-in some cases, the word sociopath can be changed with the word Hierarchy...

Haha. I'll one up you. I can't stand dogs and am indifferent to cats.
Dogs are for lonely people. Get an Xbox and man up...all this "man's best friend" shit, is laughable.

I've been slinging mass quantities of dick worldwide. mankind will survive and thrive.
How much child support have you racked up monthly BDB?
-
Kids, for me, would get in the way of my true life passions: music, weight training and the general avoidance of humans.
:D
-
The worst thing about having kids is all the child support and court battles you face about 75% of the time.
-
Men want sex. Women want kids.
-
Every day I see a lot of dumbasses with poor genetics, who have children, which they shouldn't have because of their poor genetics. On top of that they don't know how to raise children, but that's not a surprise if you're a dumbass with poor genetics.
Mankind is fucked.

Raising a human ape to age 18 and paying for its college costs (~)$300K, while the average American earns $1.7 million in pretax income over his/her working life. [1,2 respectively] So, if a couple of average Americans decide to marry and have a couple of average American apes, they will end up spending 22% (!) of their lifetime after-tax income on the beasts alone.* The number is almost double if only one parent works. And, this doesn't even take into account opportunity cost (the value of what you could have done otherwise).
*0.6 (raising two kids to 18) / [1.7 x 2 (two average incomes) x 0.8 (average combined tax rate for married couples with average income is 20%[3]) = 0.22
