[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of factors. Women wanting a career more than a family. Young people not wanting to marry let alone start a family. Young people more interested in social media than actual human contact. Egocentricity - more concerned with one's own needs and not wanting to worry about the needs of another. The economy and unwillingness to sacrifice luxuries for the benefit of another. [/quote] The world does not need more humans. Having a baby is selfish and done to fulfill one's self. You are not making some grand sacrifice for the world, this is about you and yours. [/quote] If everyone stopped having babies, humans would cease to exist. Seems that is what you want. Despite your beliefs, having children is a sacrifice. It is also a blessing and an experience so rewarding that those who choose to not have children will never experience. [/quote] Sure. Keep telling yourself that. Those of us who don’t have kids will enjoy our fat bank accounts and our free time. [/quote] dp.. I don't necessarily think that everyone should have children, but after watching my parents and ILs deal with old age issues and death, I have to say that it would have been even harder and lonelier in their old age without their children. My parents had 4 kids, and not on purpose. I don't think my mother would've chosen to have 4 if she had the choices that women have today. It was really hard for her. But, when we were all much older, out of the house and living independent lives, she said that she was glad she had so many children that she could rely on and go visit.[/quote]
