    What bugs me the most is free babysitting. The neighbor next door is dealing with great grandkids that aren't his. They are being dropped off daily by his wife's grandkids. Even she seems annoyed but won't say no to them. I couldn't imagine being in my 70's changing diapers and entertaining kids under the age of 10. Whenever I do get a chance to interact with them, they look so worn out. Sadly, I remember my mother dropping me off regularly at my great grandma place for a while. Poor old lady looked so annoyed but still managed to make it bearable for herself while I was there.

    Happy people don't explain this HARD. You don't want kids. Okay 👌...last time I checked, that's not a crime so why try to prove a "case"???? People who make this type of content make me wonder if they are confident in their decision or trying to worl things out with themselves. Just live how you choose and be happy. People with kids still have jobs, still have aging parents, still have hobbies, still run their own companies lol. It's just that they chose to have children and made it work by reworking the way they organized their time and resources to support that decision. Pretty simple. Is it easy? Nope, but it is it harder than any other major commitment NOPE! Go live your life and make sure you get to know what you actually want before it's top late to be honest with yourself if you don't want kids, stop explaining yourself. It sounds really weird like someone who is guilty or uneasy.

    After watching this vid and seeing at least a handful of the comments already, this shows to me that at 53yrs old, child free, I am not so “weird” any more in my idealogies on being child free and the reasons being based on how I started seeing this world back in my 20s which was in the 1990s era. It’s nice to see younger generation of folk that also see where the toxic systems in the world systems are part of the falling away of people engaging in traditional mainstream choices

  • @queeniequeen949

    I sure wish that content like this was made a long time ago. I’m also child free by choice and by circumstance. I would hate to I risk MY LIFE and destroy MY BODY being pregnant and giving birth, give MY best years away to help build a family, only for a man (husband or not) to devalue it and decide that he wants no parts of the child’s upbringing. I came from a broken home with without my day so I REFUSE TO RAISE A CHILD ALONE!!! No kids for me thanks! 🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫🚫

  • @etaylor8028
    @etaylor8028 Рік тому

    I don't want kids because I like my sleep and my money. That's literally it, lol. It's not an act of rebellion on society, it's simply because I get very irritable if my sleep is disturbed. Also let's be real, producing a human with your dna to "love you unconditionally" is the ultimate narcissistic move. If you are not adopting, then having a kid is selfish, and that's absolutely fine but don't pretend it isn't.

    Its the “IDEA” of FOREVER…. I mean everything in life is kinda meant to be TEMPORARY. Jobs, Money, Marriage, Relationships, School, CERTAIN Family can be temporary but when it comes to being a parent its forever….. cousins are temporary aunts, uncles, even siblings. A child can always decide not to fuck with their parents but Parents will never decide not to reconcile with their child. Theirs people in the world who HATE the idea of FOREVER 🤷🏾‍♀️ and rightfully so.

    I love the hypocrisy of the who’s going to look after you when you’re old. My mum has always bingoed me and subtlety (sometimes not so subtlety) pushed me to have kids. Now that I’m 38 and starting to think I actually don’t want kids my Nan is 88 and is in a pretty bad shape health wise. Her son (my uncle) kicked her out of her flat, she lives with her 83 y o sister who cares for her while my alcoholic uncle takes all her pension. My dad says nothing, my mum is lamenting that they can’t possibly take my grandma (they have a spare guest room) and provide efficient care. I’m the only one who’s offering to pay fully for a nursing home. I keep wanting to say something about the irony of being looked after when you’re old but keep my thoughts to myself

    Hey Lauren🌸, my name is Juliet I’m in my final year of my degree in Psychology, I’m beyond nervous for selection into an Honours for Psychology. I want to know how did you find your selection experience into honours? I was told to apply to multiple universities to ensure a better chance of selection just because of how competitive it is to get selected, did you also apply to numerous universities? Did you also apply to private universities such as Varsity College? And if you don’t mind sharing, what was our combined average over all your undergraduate modules, that ensured your selection into Honours?

    People do attach their identity to their children. Not only through projection but bc they’re too afraid to discover who they are without them. Its a distraction from their own inner work.

I thought I did enough research about my degree. It seems that i cannot become a psychologist in the future due to me doing a Ba degree in Psychology. I think I should have went the Bsc route.

    I would let my mother rot in a run down nursing home for sure. She never let me forget that she regretted having kids even as she continued to get pregnant by weak men and push those bad decisions on me. Now I’m traumatized by being forced to be a mom before I was competent, and I don’t want to ever go through the pain of not being able to be the adult that adorable and innocent child needs.
