3. People who don’t ever want to have kids, why?

People who don’t ever want to have kids, why?

#1. I barely have enough time as-is to do what I want to do in my life and I don't even have a girlfriend yet.

#2. I'm not emotionally or financially stable enough to be a father without becoming resentful.

#3. If I had a daughter, I'd become a murderer very quickly if anyone harmed even a hair on her head and this world has a ton of people who make it their mission to make women as miserable as possible so that list would become very long, very quickly.

#4. If I had a son, I wouldn't be able to make the world good enough for him to thrive as much as he deserves to, nor am I confident enough that I'd be able to fully guide him to become immune to the bullshit noise-chambers that breed toxic masculine garbage.

*the same pretty much applies for both 3 and 4, it doesn't matter, I'll destroy you if you hurt my hypothetical children who will never exist and that is perfectly fine with me.*

#5. I'm finally, after a lifetime of adversity and garbage experiences, in a place of relative security. I might as well set my house on fire and curse out my supervisor to get fired from my job after purposefully getting into a car wreck that causes me years of legal trouble and musculoskeletal pain that no one will have sympathy for because I brought it upon myself, while going back to college for a useless major just to get back into student loan debt. That'll probably do less damage to my future than having a child would.

#6. I'd never forgive myself if I failed.

#7. My family struggles with a multitude of mental health issues, as someone who had to go through alternative schooling to conform to a socially acceptable and employable model of what a human being should be, I would rather not subject my offspring to that experience, especially since pretty much everything is more depressing now.

#8. Climate change.

#9. I'd rather not bring children into a world that actively seeks to make them either broodmares for the state or soulless worker ants.

#10. They could end up being terrible people regardless of what I do.

#11. Our societies are not good enough and I'd rather not subject new life to the horrible future we're about to have to put up with.

#12. I don't want my story to end.

#13. I don't like doing things just because I'm "supposed" to.

#14. I'd spend the rest of my life working my ass to the bone trying to make sure these kids have as good of a life as possible and I'd likely burn out and have a psychotic breakdown in the process because I would literally have zero time for myself. My life would be over, it would be 100% about the kids and I'd rather die than live like that.

#15. I don't want to have to share the affections of whoever my partner is with anyone but an animal friend.

#16. I want to live the DINK lifestyle and all I need is a wife for that.

#17. I want as much control of my time as possible.

#18. It's the hardest job in the world and I do not have what it takes to do it, nor do I have any desire whatsoever.
