It is like To put somebody in a done work. Every reason that some one can say about having a child is something between two people. we see that from our sides. But it is about someone else's life. Even if you want to provide the best you can do for his or her life, it is all from your view. The meaning that the life has for us is totally different from the meaning that life has for a new person in this world. What the people do, how the people think and the destiny the have is all because of what they have been taught through their childhood. Some one can be simply a doctor and another one a thief. all the people are born equal. the brain is empty. they are formed with what they hear, eat, see and feel. You bring a child just because you two want that, not that child. It is just a force through TV and commercial that governments make and the make people to have children and they say it a duty or blah blah blah because the Financiers need new born people to work for them in the future. You just bring a child to work for someone else who dictated you to do so.Alexandros C Divinenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13055290723028357.post-86393287315777961092013-08-30T16:01:44.617-04:002013-08-30T16:01:44.617-04:00I try to be honest in these posts.

Poor, poor, Hannah. I am 16 and wish I was never born for the exact reasons above. I am going to strive for the best future ever for my self. I am not a selfish person, I just would never bring someone into this horrible world for the reasons listed above and MORE. You can't even guarantee your child won't be a disgusting drug using, slut, pedophile, child molester, murderer or rapist. I could go on.

As someone who is still ...What a well-written post! As someone who is still on the fence about having kids in the future, I often examine the pros and cons of bringing someone into this world--"condemning" them, so to speak, to the Human Experience, with all its disappointments, heartbreak, and disillusionments. I especially love how you broke down all the reasons why choosing to have kids is an inherently selfish choice--something most people unfortunately seem not to recognize! (I mean come on now, who are we kidding?) The fact that you actually have a daughter and still ponder these issues is proof of your ability to ensure objective analysis overrides maternal bias. The really brilliant part, of course, is how you paint the majority of hopeful parents to bidders in a lottery--there really does seem to be a tendency to idealize/romanticize your child's future without taking into account the many pitfalls life will inevitably hand them (some which may come as a result of bad parenting)! Of course, you could argue it behooves most people to maintain some form of optimistic self-delusion about their child's future in order to encourage dedicated and emotionally healthy parenting, as well as to foster self-esteem and ambition in the child. But a dose of realism wouldn't hurt either.darkschoolnightnoreply@blogger.com
