Imagine having kids just so you have someone to take care of you when you get old. That's wild as hell.

:wow:
Facts. And that’s one of the major arguments I see :mjlol:

Nursing homes are hard to get into so plenty of people with kids aren’t taking care of their parents :laff:

Have kids just to be a burden to them later on brehs.

Misery Loves Company. I had a spanish single mom of two try to shame me for getting a vasectomy but she got her BD on child suppo. She really mad cuz a nikka figured out the hustle of baby entrapment cuz most brothas are supposed to be these horny over the top simps, especially for non black women. Also her kids aren't going to grow up to be anything particular the writing is already on the wall.

I hear a lot of parents say the bold. I Love my kids BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT.

It be funny too because these same folks play dumb when you say you don't want kids.

I want kids at some point but it’s funny how people who have kids make all these judgments and assumptions about the people who don’t.

Just look at the comments in the Twitter thread. Damn near all of them are saying he’s going to regret when he’s older, he’s selfish, he’d be happier and full of love if he had them, etc…makes you wonder how many of those people are just coping.
That’s always funny to me. My wife and I discussed kids very early on and we were on the same page that we didn’t want any. Just because we don’t have them, there are still kids in our lives who get our love and support and if anything ever happened to their parents we would step in. On the same note, we do recognize we have to make extra concessions cause there won’t be anyone forced to take care of our old decrepit selves lol. To me that’s the real selfishness. If you’re only having a kid because you’re worried about your “legacy” or someone to care for you later, there’s a problem there too.

shyt, if I had money like he did, I wouldn't have kids either. The only reason I see for kids is to take care of you the couple years where your life becomes extremely hard to live as you slowly die. The life I'm able to live without dependable is just something I'm not willing to give up right now.

It's annoying to have to listen to his goofy rationale.
But it's fine that he made that personal decision for himself.

I hope that clarifies things.
It actually did but this topic hitting rn for me bruh.

I don't see how people who be having all these kids out of wedlock, babymomma/daddy issues be trying to lowkey hate and shame childless couple.

He seemed like he was really trying to convince everyone. Don’t care what anyone says. His wife wants kids. Are you kidding me, they are rich as fukk, they can have kids.

Either they can’t have kids, or she is lying. Either way. I’m fine with it, one less child of the synagogue of satan will be born.

It's a defensive mechanism, not one of convincing.

How can I best put this? Adults who are childless (and especially those who don't want either marriage or kids) are passive-aggressively "persecuted" by those who've bought in to the concept of procreation. Your motives are always questioned, your reasons are always challenged as insincere, and you're always being told not only that you're wrong but also given reason after reason why you're wrong, which is highly insulting since most adults who chose not to have kids have already done the cost-benefit analysis way before you'd ever think they did.

And that's not even including the Jesus freaks who hit you with the "God put us here to be fruitful and multiply" garbage.

So with each conversation comes rebuttals. And rebuttals. And more rebuttals. It eventually gets to the point where you just give it all at once as a response to beat it into the other party's head that "I've thought this through thoroughly so please leave your judgmental responses inside your mouth. I'm not doing this song and dance anymore."

And until the day procreaters stop the slick comments, questions, body language, and judgemental attitude to those who choose to be childless, drawn out responses like Rogen's become an inevitability.

Don't want it to reach to that stage? Listen attentively to what you're being told and take a step down from your family-oriented high horse and just take our reasons as gospel the first time and keep it pushing.

True. Just look at the Twitter comments. Those people must be miserable and tryna convince everyone they aren’t. I wonder if they’re married and even hood parents 🤔

Seth might change his mind one day. You never know and who really cares lol.

these people will scream they are childfree then turn around and try to argue that pets are just like children & they are fur moms and fur dads who deserve the same rights (tax breaks, gifts for their kids, celebration during mothers day) as others with kids

🧐

he's rich. he can afford a nanny or for his wife to be a stay-at-home mom.

Most men on this forum don’t want kids which makes it even more baffling when people shyt on women for not wanting or having kids. This is a pretty common sentiment among many adults. I’d imagine a majority of young adults are open to having kids but at least 40% don’t want kids I bet.
