Pathetic shyt

The title is a bit misleading, giving readers the impression that he's saying parenting is the problem. The whole point is the lack of support parents have, and that's the problem.

I have no interest in having kids, so I have no interest in helping to take on the burden and lessen the load on parents.

Parents take on that burden when they choose to have kids though as some people don't even have that even before they bring children into the world. Most people are struggling and barely getting by themselves to be able to help someone else and their kids out even if it's the right thing to do.

Being a parent isn’t for the weak of mind and will. It’s helpful to have someone to talk to though for tough times.

Having kids should be a well thought-out decision. For most people, it kind of just happens. I think the whole point the surgeon general is trying to make is that there are things we can do as a society to make parenting less stressful.

Of course, but nothing beats having a support system in place which some people just don't have as those lawmakers and your bosses can't provide that nor care to do so.

This seems like an article written to discourage people in having children. They complain about birth rates and then put some shyt like this out there.

Raising children can be the most fulfilling thing in one's life. To each their own though. That death bed hits different when you're in hospice with no visitors.

It is difficult and can be stressful. But it also brings a lot of humor, humility, strength, pride, joy and fulfillment as well. The payoff is well worth it.

 

[Dorian Breh]

this is plainly true and anyone who disagrees has never raised kids well

Thatss sad why I’m not bringing any children into this world, everything costs too much plus this worlds only getting crazier.
