[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not trying to be snarky, but genuinely curious… how is it selfish to not want kids?[/quote] Well, the entirety of society around you is due to the fact that people did the hard work of having kids. Childless adults (grown-up children really) are free riding on the work of others. If everyone decided not to have kids who do you think would take care of you in the nursing home? Pay for your social security? The childless by choice folks are the equivalent of the NEETs who refuse to get a job and stay in their parents basement all day. The sad part is they don’t realize the joy and fulfillment you get from actually applying yourself and doing something worthwhile for others, and instead remain mired in their self-referential lives, desperately traveling and going to brunches and trying to be the ‘cool aunt’. To the OP- I’ll also probably feel like a failure if my kids don’t want to have kids. [/quote] +100[/quote]
