kids only benefit corps: they want human labor, they can create gmo kids and raise them on their expense, else a baby trashes his mother’s body, and a financial burden for the dad only to benefit corps. also noisy and uncontrollable, and personally i hate when things are out of my control.
why do some people hate kids so much?
I’ll attempt a real answer. I don’t hate kids or the parents of kids who care for them and raise them to be good people.
I hate that societal pressures place having kids at the near top of life’s implicit goals. I hate that my wife and I almost had kids because of these pressures, when neither of us really wanted it. And if it weren’t for one (slightly older than us) couple we were friends with sharing that they were childfree, we would be there, and likely unhappy about it. So we speak out, not out of hate, but just to provide the other side, it ok to have kids… It’s ok to not, it’s a choice.
…check the community name, my dude
I don’t not have a boat because I hate boats. Same applies for kids aswell.
I must say tho thay when ever I hear my friends talk about their kids it’s rarely about how nice they are.
I see no hate in this thread.
We just don’t want kids (or don’t want to be around them). Doesn’t necessarily mean we hate them.
idk, “shitty fucking kids” sounds pretty hateful and uncalled for
Let’s be real, just like adults, some kids are awful. I’ve known good parents that get dealt a terror of a child.
Also, it’s a meme that is obviously over the top. Child free people also don’t have money falling out of their pockets. Don’t be so serious.
You know what else is uncalled for?
enlighten me
Showing up in a group people use to vent and saying the very same kind of shit people are there to vent about.
“We don’t want kids to be any near of us, which is totally not hating them”
I don’t want homeless people near me either. Doesn’t mean I hate them, or wish them poorly.
I don’t hate kids, but it would be a horrific nightmare for everyone involved if I had some of my own. Never wanted them, never will. I do adore my niece.
it’s okay to not want them, but calling them “shitty fucking kids” or “crotch goblins” or other stupid names is a different matter and only reflects badly on the person who says these things
Why do you even care? CF people aren’t going to bother you or your uninteresting children
You are in a community devoted to the decision to not having kids. Just pointing that out since there does seem to be some confusion.
Which totally shouldn’t justify it becoming an echo chamber of child-haters
It doesn’t justify it at all, but it does add context
Because they had a bad life and think they were “forced to be born (and then new humans would live a life as miserable as theirs)”
Everyone that has existed did have existence forced upon them though.
Doesn’t mean you have to be miserable, but existing was not a consensual decision (as far as we are currently able to understand).
That life actually sounds meaningless and empty
Life is what you make of it. Judge not lest ye be judged.
What did you hope to accomplish, publishing this comment in a community explicitly for child-free people? Did you think I was going to have a come to Jesus moment and turn my life around and become a parent because you posted this?
No, I was laughing at what you aspire to be
