You definitely shouldn't be having kids if you can't afford it

by Anonymous 1 week ago

On a societal level, making it so that most people feel like they can't afford kids is already causing significant problems in most developed nations. Current political and economic trends indicate that this will continue to get worse. Those living in poverty in less developed nations will end up with the greatest incentive to have kids. Since one more mouth to feed won't degrade their situation much, but if even one of their children becomes successful (usually by emigrating) then they will have a pension from remittances. This combination of low and high birthrates will fuel demand for worldwide economic migration for decades to come.

Poor people shouldn't have kids?

If you're struggling to feed/house/clothe yourself, having a child is not going to make that situation better

Aka, "most black people should not have children". It shouldn't just be rich people (mostly white people) who get to procreate.

I didn't say rich. You just have to be financially stable and be able to support a child. It's incredibly irresponsible to have a child and not be able to support it, regardless of race

But ultimately the final outcome will be far fewer black children born. "Financially stable" can mean different things to different people.

If you can't afford food you shouldn't have it - everyone

Well, if that were the case, I guess I'll start paying my dog for its food and rent!

I am now 61, but still act like a child. Does that mean I can have anything I want?
