Hormones are a helluva drug my guy Abongination posted:It's super rewarding watching them grow and develop OP, possibly the most rewarding thing ever Idk dude that is definitely fun but then they have to like get a job, not afford a house, not retire ever and we have to explain what affordable healthy food was through videos on tiktok, the kid part seems fun though, i can dig that.

I'll have kids when I hear affirmative and informed agreement from my balls and partner's ovaries. Forcing sentience without prior consent is a hell of a lovely thing to do in tyool 2023.

My four year old won't sleep because he's completing an 8+ LEGO set and he whined about doing this on the whole way down to the beach house. His mom and I are brushing off most requests for help and he is muscling through on his own just fine. Someday I hope that he will be able to build communism.

I assume I'm gonna be a single parent due to my consistent below average luck throughout my lifetime. Until childcare alone doesn't nuke a quarter of my income before any other bills are paid, ain't no kids being had. Anglosphere countries have hosed childcare into a rent seeking operation that extorts the 9-5 wage slaves who have no choice, only for themselves to be extorted out of business by an out of control insurance industry (at least where I live, insurance has almost nuked the nighttime industry out of existence at this point).

I think the real answer is that most people can’t afford to have kids. Add $20k yearly to your salary and none of what you posted would be an issue. Not blaming you, because I respect the fact that you realize this and don’t procreate, but a lot of people refuse to accept this and keep pushing out babies.

Our kids keep yelling and making GBS threads like extra good cats. It's awesome. The hospital bill was ludicrous but eh, we already had to pay for a bunch of hospital bills before that and simply did not. What is a credit score but damned yankee numbers? I have a cool rear end wife and cool little girls. It is all worth it. Eventually someone will have a health problem I guess, at which point, in the word's of Lin-Manuel Miranda's Marquis de Lafayette, we're going back to France.

Going to see my nephew who was born yesterday today. His dad and I are both history nerds, so by the time he’s old enough to play with them he’s going to have enough Civil War army men to recreate the battle of Anteitam.

Having kids isn’t for everyone. Having cats and dogs isn’t for everyone. Human interaction isn’t for everyone either. Three kids, 13,6 and 5. Youngest was born with ambiguous genitalia, which lemme say, is a whole huge thing to break off and mull over, especially when you’ve lived your life as a lecherous, scummy sales person with little thought to the issues of sex and gender. I don’t even know how the hell I didn’t low tax myself after spending two months sleeping on a small Couch in his nicu room until a room in the Ronald McDonald house opened up. You roam the halls, trying to clear your thoughts, and say things like how could this be, how could this happen. Then you meet parents that would literally cut their hearts out on the spot to have an alive infant, regardless of condition/health. Rinse wash and repeat that process several times. Why have kids? Not for everyone for sure. Loving maybe, just loving maybe, the world won’t be such a horrid terrible place if you can at least put a couple Humans on the right path. Ain’t no hope for me, I’ll be a scumbag probably until death. But maybe there’s some hope that these kids won’t be as awful. Also if you hate having money. Or hair. Or nice furniture. Those are good reasons to have kids too. If you’ve ever been curious what milk smells like in a $50k vehicle after it’s been spilled months ago. Stuff like that.

When doing used car shopping, my nose knows it there. I talked the price of the van down some because of this fact. They thought their detail crew was able to hide that from me, the arrogant fools.

My six year old described solipsism to me unprompted, so if I helped make a philosopher I did good. Also Arrhythmia posted:I'm not going to read 10 pages of this GBS thread to find out if someone already said it, but because raw dogging it with your wife feels good OP.
