[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I won't have kids until this country gets serious with "family friendly" policies - mandatory sick leave and vacation time, mandatory maternity leave, affordable childcare, universal pre-K, affordable and high quality colleges, etc.

We are DINKs but seriously thinking of pursuing opportunities in other countries that actually value children and parents.[/quote]

I agree that this country needs to be more family friendly, but if everyone in this country thought the same as you we'd have no births. We'd have to rely 100% on immigrants to support us in our old age, and we all know how popular that is.  You're lucky that not everyone thinks like you.

There is never a good time to have kids.  As long as you are financially stable and healthy, that's the best time to have a kid.[/quote]

Here's a novel idea. Support your own damn self in old age![/quote]

I plan on it.  I wasn't talking about financially moron.

Who is going to wipe your ass and change your diaper when you are so old you can't go shit in the bathroom?  A robot?  No, they would be called home help aides, done by humans.   Who will become our doctors, police, etc... if everyone stopped having babies?  We don't live forever, you know.  So, who will keep our economy going?  Oh that's right, immigrants.  Oh but wait.  We want to make immigration so restrictive that we only allow "highly skilled workers".  Would those workers want to wipe up your shit?  I doubt it.    So, then let's allow low skilled immigrants. See?  Problem solved.  The US will eventually be just made up immigrants and their children.  Oh wait.... [/quote]

Your poor children.[/quote]

OMG.  No, I wasn't saying it would be my children.  I was saying that if everyone thought like the PP - don't have kids -- then who would support the aging population.  Good gracious people... think![/quote]
