TIME Magazine Glamorizes Life Without Children

[anabolichalo]

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...

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.

huh. As kid grows you spend more and more time alone/with wife, then you get old and you wish there would be someone. You guys have just no clue what you re talking about, pathetic childish know it alls.

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.

No yelling kids, just perfect

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.

[calfzilla]

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.

Does this mean you hate Ann Coulter?

[The Abdominal Snoman]

What about the dumb rich people?

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...

[Croatch]

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

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?

[Fortress]

Kids, for me, would get in the way of my true life passions: music, weight training and the general avoidance of humans.

 

[240_Iz_Nutz]

The worst thing about having kids is all the child support and court battles you face about 75% of the time.

[Papper]

Men want sex. Women want kids.

[freespirit]

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
