surprisingly low. maybe more people are doing ok enough than I thought.
The only circumstance under which I could ever see myself having children is if I lived in China. Even that would be a bit scary as long as USA still exists.
White, married, make ~$160k/yr combined (pretax). No kids, vasectomy. Climate change and the complete lack of pro-natal infrastructure in our society is why. No nearby family to rely on, and by the time we finish our 8 hour days, neither of us has the energy to prepare a meal and care for a child. I don’t really love being alive and I’d have a lot of regret bringing in someone to a worse world and make them deal with that feeling every day
I mean, ya know…
Dats one reason I guess.
1 in 4 gen z-ers say they won’t have kids due to being gay and trans :spectre-of-gender:
You jest, but I see this as the new angle for homophobia.
: “Those dang lgbt folk, we ordered them to have kids…but they’re in relationships where they CANNOT produce kids! No, you can’t just adopt and raise a child in foster care…you’re shirking your responsibility to give us more cattle!”
