This has to be the the dumbest post I have ever seen. Science, healthcare, technology, opportunity are at their highest points in the entire history of humanity. We are literally living at the apex of all civilization. But all means, let your genes exit the pool! It's called survival of the fittest.

NP. Uh, no. Idiocracy is rapidly becoming a reality.

Things ebb and flow. This time is no different. The tide will always turn.

They will ebb from the US and flow to other countries. It's called a brain drain and is already happening.

We’re losing a lot of less smart people too. It balances out.

No they don't. They want their kids to be happy. Having kids isn't for everyone and parents need to realize that their kids' idea of happy may look very different from their's.

Every parent may not want their kid to have a kid, but every parent wants to be a grandparent one day.

Eh. You’ll change your tune when they are in their 30’s and 40’s.

Everyone thinks their time was the worst to bring a child into. You wouldn't be here if people made this decision in the great depression or WW2.

Maybe PP didn’t want to be here. Not everyone wants to be born.

Climate change is the difference.

Climate change? And?
So you won’t be able to buy that beach house on the outer banks? Might have to alter your diet a little due to agricultural shifts? Big whoop.

This last comment was made by someone who doesn’t have kids old enough to be married with families. You have a different perspective on life. When you get to be in your late 50’s and 60’s your perspective will change.

My 2 kids are still young but I don't think I will care about being a grandparent. I would be happy if it happens and they want it to happen, but I dont feel the need for them to have kids just to make me a grandparent. I want them to be happy whatever that means for them.

Yes I realize I may change my tune in 15 years. But I hope not.

Im thinking about my friends and their parents and who isnt a grandparent. One friend has 2 siblings but none of them are going to have children. She is very close with her mom still. Of all my other close friends who don't have kids of their own, they do have a sibling with kids. So I guess it is pretty rare for that generation to not be a grandparent.

This was my cousin. My decided not to pursue IVF due to money, but they had done IUI. My aunt didn't find out until years later and she was devastated. She said she would have given them 100k for IVF had she known money was the issue.

I know they shouldn’t but they still secretly do.

Wasting your parental instincts and energy on other people’s kids.

That’s why you should support the end of vaccines. Vaccines have kept stupid people alive and allowed them to reproduce.

There’s so much more now, everyone is able to have kids and the kids survive and carry on their genes.

I would be especially upset if it’s the spouse who can’t.

That’s not necessarily true.

I’m in my 60s and none of my kids seem to want kids, at least right now. They are still working on establishing themselves.

For right now, I’m surprisingly sanguine about it. I felt totally tapped out raising 4 kids for 25 years fairly on my own (effort and time wise) and just the idea of starting the whole cycle again leaves me feeling tired even thinking about it

Are you willing to take care of the grandkid full time? If not, please stop asking your kids to have kids in this treacherous economy.

No anyone bringing a child into the US at this point in time is a complete and utter idiot.

No vaccines??

No education??

Piggy with Nuclear codes?

Alcohol Pete?

Christian nationalists wanting clergy in schools "inspecting your kids genitals" to play sports?

Oh and the best for last women as breeders, no voting rights, no rights at all.

Hell no.
