#37It's a built-in biological mechanism to keep the species going, that's it. Now that we have to worry about over-population and crappy economy our evolved intellect has to kick in and tell us that we can have purpose without kids.Comment -

#42Very sharp post, I'll give ya 10 SBR pts for this one, never thought of that but that makes alot of sense, when you get stuck in a traffic jam your brain like calculates damn theres too many ppl already so for god sakes slow down the population growth, then you see how much kids cost now and you're like not ONLY are they gonna quadruple the population in 30 years (with mostly idiots like Mayan as the intelligent ppl have already stopped having kids) and destroy the planet but they are costing themselves 300k/kid over the next 20 years (100k for college + avg cost of 10k/kid/year) as well, to do those kinds of things you really have to have some very tangible reasons in my opinion and they are just not thereComment -

#46I knew from time i was 16 i didnt want kids im now almost 30 turns out i made the right choice FOR ME damn near everybody i know is miserable with kids. I like having me and my girls disposable income its very nice being able to do what we want when we want i dont need so little version of me that will cost me money and give me gray hair. We are as happy as could be a kid would **** that up. People with kids will never admit kids are a mistake and everybody says they love their kids but we all know this isnt the case... Im posting this from gym just had an awesome workout at 2:30 am pst cant really do that with kids. Kids would really **** up my life just when im getting my life just how i want it. No thanks i think i'll just be an awesome uncle help at risk youth be a big brother etcComment -

Lets say I ****** a bunch of trailer trash and knocked em up would that be a good decision just bc the kids would exist? I mean perhaps on an individual level the kid would be glad he or she exists but from an economic point of view it would be terrible
Ppl want to view someone who doesnt want to have kids as selfish, cold-hearted etc, the truth is they have just analyzed the logic of the decision and realize that it doesnt make sense to bring kids into this world that cost 300k a piece when they dont expect to have an extra 300k lying around
Look if you look in your bank account and it says 300k and you want to get rid of it, have a kid. Have fun changin shitty diapers and cleaning up messes and shit caused by your brats and buying a bunch of computer toys so they can sit and post on facebook/twitter/myspace all day when they're not playing video games but for the average person it is simply a terrible ******* idea.
I honestly am impressed by the intelligence about this subject on the forum, most posters on here agree with me, as such they have a chance to have a fat wallet while the idiots are trying to get kid puke stains out of their shirts and the smell of shit filled diapers out of their houseComment -

Amen, same here, countless times (I would say in fact the majority) of guys that knock up girls can barely support themselves but somehow come to the conclusion that having a child to additionally support for 300k makes sense, either that or they are just too lazy to pull out or too poor to buy a condom or birth control idk, I guess they just plan to let the taxpayers support them

#51There are nearly 7 billion ppl in the world, its hardly an endangered species, in fact its overpopulation that poses a threat to mankinds continued existence by increasing demand on limited resources many of which that when they are gone they are gone permanently, believe me you are doing the world no favors by adding to its nearly 7 billion population, half of which live in abject poverty
Why do you think China only allows 1 child per family? Bc they are having trouble keeping the species going?Comment -

#52bettilimbroke999, I am shocked at your response and you impressed the hell out of me with it. You nailed this right on the money, exactly! I thought you wouldn't get it but you are a very sharp guy! I couldn't of said it any better!
Ty illini, it is good to hear from you again as well, all is well with me though I do live in the south so the weather is not so great, I hope all is good with you
I understand what your saying as well, I assume that the Jews that are fans of tottenham (even though I dont follow soccer at all) know that to be part of that army is a good thing but I think that if some general person used Yid to describe some random Jew it would be considered derogatory, I guess its just whatever context if you're like yea I really like shiksas its good and if they say oh so you heard illinis dating a shiksa oy vey, then its prolly not so good, its just one of those whatever the context is type of words I guessהמוסד

It's not so much Earth's overall real estate we are using up, it's the amount of arable land that we'll need to sustain for future generations to source out to farmers at a premium as time goes on. The scary thing is we can still fit all 7 billion of us into Los Angeles and we are already close to the tipping point of not being able to sustain human livelihood in a few short decades. So we need less kids and more scientists for everybody's sake... and less greedy old bastards.

#54When you have kids through marriage and there is 2 incomes coming in it's not as bad as you think. It's not easy though, my wife and I pay over 500 dollars a month in after care. I have two kids, our grocery bill monthly is over 500 dollars so those two bills alone can cost a grip.Comment -

#55That's a fantastic point but an antiquated one. Status Quo is constantly changing; back then it really was power by numbers and that's how we came to conquer the Earth but not without the seemingly compulsory destructive path it took for us to get here i.e. CO2 emission, killing off other species to the brink of extinction, depletion of natural resources (forestry, drinkable water) at an alarming rate, etc.,

#64When you have a child, you are responsible for their mental development for the critical first years of their life. Morons who don't know which direction a condom goes on are breeding like puppies while people smart enough to question whether or not to have children are lucky if they even leave a replacement for themselves. I want to have a child to try to add an intelligent, empathetic person to the world. If biology fails me, I'll adopt a chinese baby or something.Walter forgot... when you're desperate's when you got no choice.Comment -

#66If we do not have children (future slaves), who is going to pay back China the money we owe them and fight the wars that the politicians and the big businessmen start? I saw this place going to hell long ago economically as well as ecologically and decided then (when I was about 18) to not have children. I know I made the right choice, I hope that you that decided to have children feel the same.
On a side note. I get bothered having to pay school taxes at the same rate of someone that has children. I am not suggesting I pay no school taxes, but to have to pay an equal amount does not make sense to me. If having children is such a miracle/blessing/wonderful bullshit, then a parent should WANT to pay more than someone like me with no children.
Lastly, this country is totally screwed . Anyone thinking we are going to have a financial recovery is not too bright, while setting the future generations up to suffer.
Good day and good luck gentlemen.Comment -

The Earth can support the population, if we didn't live as long as do. People say that the solution is to have less babies, to recycle, to save the environment, etc. How about we just quit keeping people alive artificially for decades? I know that it sounds callous, but really, is there an alternative?Comment -

#69Good question, the answer is we've got several posters on here that were dropped on their heads frequently when they were kids, many have been recently fired from McDs for being untrainable and immediately replaced by a Capuchin monkey. They then walk home to their mom's basement and logon to SBR and start postingComment -
