[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of these people, their parents sacrificed a lot for them, and they acknowledge they had a great childhood. I don't get the self-serving and isolating nature.[/quote]

This is such a f'd up way to look at things.

Not marrying is "self-serving", isn't marriage and kids actually self-serving since you don't think you can make it through life without a contract with another person saying they must do so.

There is nothing more isolating that marriage and kids. [/quote]

That is untrue and the stats are there to prove it. Single men are the loneliest in all of society. Marriage and kids is not isolating. It might be limiting but so is being single. All choices have limits. A single person lives for himself and takes care of no one typically. Sometimes they take care of a family member, but not usually. Their whole life revolves around their needs and wants only. Spending your entire life serving your own needs and wants and not others is self-serving.[/quote]

I have been married with kids. There is nothing more isolating than being married with kids. Nothing. I am more socially connected divorced with kids. Being married with kids means zero time if you are working. Zero. Also, never married people have more time to help others, which is what moms don't have. I have aunts who have been way more useful in society volunteering and helping other family members because they have the time because they don't have kids of their own. You are ridiculous to not understand this.[/quote]

This. There is the rare marriage that is not isolating. You get sh@t if you want to spend more than 2 nights out a week without your spouse.[/quote]
