Wages have actually shrunk over the last 45 years when adjusted for inflation. As such, no one can afford to have kids. Now everyone is panicking because no one is having kids. What, exactly, did the masters of the universe think was going to happen?
theres no suitable men out there for the few women that i talk to who do want families, lots of redpill player types and men who a bondon thier families thats why people arent doing it any more theres no reason to most men on dating apps are married better to stay single and avoid men unless you want. a life of lies and misery

Reason 11: inspiring my partner to start working out as well. Six months after his double bypass im still trying to get him to take morning walks with me. We're only in our early 40's. The kids jave started working out with me though ❤
Would I love for a woman to love me and be my partner for life? Absolutely. Absolutely I get lonely living alone since my father died in 2006. But, I ALSO LOVE MY FREEDOM. No fear worrying about farting around a woman. Would I love for government or other individuals to force a woman to be my wife or partner like cuntservaturds CLEARLY want to do but are TOO COWARDLY to openly state is their intention? HELL NO!!
What I wrote to Peter Zeihan on Joe Rogan show: "Hey, stupid narrow-minded smug arrogant shithead Zeihan! I was born 1964. I went my life from nursery school right up through PhD in Math in 2000 doing homework on pencil and paper and typing on a mechanical typewriter (through 1986 for my BChE) I went on protests against the Draize Eye Test and protests for animal rights with my SACA = Student Action Corps for Animals group, of which I was a Treasurer. I ALWAYS feared for my FREEDOM protesting IN PERSON. I was SO THANKFUL and GRATEFUL that high speed internet came along (for me: September 2002) so that I / we could be POLITICALLY ACTIVE REMOTELY: WITHOUT RISKING OUR FREEDOM BY THUG COPS!"
Only want kids because I’m my own family.. if I had my family and siblings,I wouldn’t want kids..but since I’m alone… I pray God gives me a family of my own.
Male. Millennial. Life is too much of a shit sandwich. Product of divorce. Seen too much divorce from friends and family. My cousin died before his wedding leaving behind his partner and son. I don't trust anyone and the interest of wanting to be in a relationship has decayed. And the thought of having to be some nuclear provider for society kind of sucks ass. Plus I think that the church is bullshit. The whole abstinence before marriage contrust can go to the bin. Fuck I'm a bit of a cynic lol.
Im about to turn 40 and my gf is turning 32. She wants kids, but I dont think I want kids. Sucks because we get along really well, but I have to put this issue on the table.
After reading through so many comments, i feel like i'm part of a cult/tribe 😂Never thought it possible, since i'm generally a loner, but here we are. Pretty awesome stuff.
You have to remember though, money can't buy happiness. If you have a million dollars and a sick partner, money can not heal them, as much as their partners LOVE can.( Love is very spiritual) Money can only help to some extent, but God said LOVE is the No.1Mental health cure! One of Gods 4 Cardinal qualities: 1.LOVE 2.WISDOM.3.POWER.4.JUDGEMENT Remove the main one, ( 1) and you have a very damaged society. 💔 Which is why He created LOVE in the very begging. No one human can live without it. Love for humans needs to come first, not money, luxuries, etc. This is "self- interest ". What the Bible talks as " devilish interest, aka "self love." Also greed as in SELF LUXURIES, that most dont need, this is all negative things that " assume to bring people happiness, but the reality: it doesnt last, forever". This is the devils version of " love". For self only. Only caring for self, esp in money, and greed, is very dangerous. Not self interest as in the bible, mentions: Giving free will: love and empathy, compassion, helping others, Only this way of "Gods Love" will work out with society and governments. But since many are hostile to even come to know God, or they hate Him, etc. Which is why now we live in an expensive, "overcharging" violence, etc etc lifestyle. And it will only get worse. The word LOVE is soon going to disappear, the way the world is going with " self interest " and money for self luxuries.
Let’s be perfectly clear here: Most folks don’t really want kids - they end up with them because of family or societal pressures to have them. Prove me wrong.
To be honest.. if making a living isn't as tough as now.. I'd have no problem to start a family. Sometimes, I thanked that I don't have a family as it will definitely cause a lot of stress in my life if I do.. especially I now have a house mortgage. As my saying.. there's no point in living if you're enduring work and have no progress in your financials. It's not that it's SAD and HARD., because it's POINTLESS.
As an older millennial, not having kids was the absolutely best decision I ever made, but I am in a LTR, and the only thing about marriage that interests me are the tax benefits.
Bravo for giving yourself permission to be in the locations that make you content and happy. Location Matters. Psychologist Theodore Sarbin talks about this with his theory of place identity before self identity. We must first answer the question “where am I?” before we can answer the question “who am I?”
Thanks for your comment Gino! I wasn’t familiar with the theory you shared. Super interesting. Since you mentioned it I’ve read a little about it in your article “Transformation Talk: Setting the Stage for Change through Emotional "Interior Design". I also did some Google research about it. Learned a lot! Appreciate you bringing that to my attention.
why the fuck do people keep bringing kids into this fucked up world? especially people who know they can't afford children or can't take care of them period.
Don't want kids for many different reasons, but even if I did want them I still wouldn't have them since I have traumas and a lot of work to do on myself. If I had kids I'd want to be the best parent possible.
Selfishness and immaturity. Funnny that when they can´t afford (whatever) they have no problem going into massive debt for it, stupidly. So, nope on the money reason. Individualism, and then again, I repeat myself: Selfishness and immaturity. They´ll be in their 50s before they FINALLY have to live with the regret of their decisions and honestly, I think the biggest problem is, while we haven´t been able to depend on them for anything useful to date, it will be worse when most of them commit suicide when reality finally catches up to them. The bottom line is this: When you reject common sense and truth, you´re left with nothing else except lies and an empty life but, go ahead...no it your way!
Raising ONE child between the ages 0-18 costs about $320,000 and just one year of raising one child costs about $18,000 (US) Yea, I'll pass. I'd rather use that money for something else instead of being in debt for the rest of my life. Also, kind of hard to buy a house or anything in this economy. Edit: This does NOT include college
Im not a millenial (im gen x) but ive never married. My parents divorced. Ive never longed for marriage. This doesnt mean that im not commited. Im in a long relationship and i have children. To me marriage is about a father selling or giving his daughter into the care of another man and i see it as outdated. No one owns me. Ive also never been attracted to status. Money and all that is all fake. Its all man made nonsense. I hate when people try to suggest that non married couples are not really commited. Plenty of people have multiple failed marriages. How is marriage more stable? Ive just had kids with this one partner who ive been with for 16 years. Not marrying and not having kids is not a disaster its a wonderul freedom for women.
It isn't just millennials , I know many older people that after divorce or losing a husband or wife choosing not to remarry. People are discovering that it's less stressful to be single and childless. I agree
