Having Kids

spoken from someone who's been burned by love recently?

philosophically we are all moved by love if we know it or not....

psychologically speaking we all NEED a good balance of truth and love.. to be mentally healthy

orange you seem to be filled with hate, perhaps cause you lack balance and truth.. that which we fear the most out of love is also that which we have already encountered in our life.. you say people are scum.. try to regain some truth and you may think differently..

as for kids, what do I know there are so many factors.. so whatever.. maybe fait has something to do with it who knows.. if there even is fait..

""That's only the tip of the iceberg.""

thats a spot on theory id say

a spot?

""That's only the tip of the iceberg.""

hi!. The main reason why most people are poor is because they have kids. It costs over $600,000 to raise 1 kid to the age from 0-25 And if u keep that money in the bank then u would have over 1.6million. Im never gonna have kids and ruin their lives and i dont want other people to have kids either. Dont want others to have kids because they will steal money from me to feed their kids. How u say? . Well they have to pay for their child's education which is a lot of money.
How do u expect them to pay for that?. Well they cant so they have to steal the money from someone else who does not have anykids. THATS WHY I HATE TAXES SO MUCH!!!.
If it werent for taxes and the government which takes money by force similiar to stealing, then the middle class idiots who are having kids would become poor and eventually will be begging for money on the streets. MOST PEOPLE WHO LIVE ON WELFARE HAVE KIDS AND THAT IS A FACT. Only people who are white and rich should only have kids. Black people should not have kids. Its not that i dont like black people. Its because no one wants to be ugly. I want every kid to feel special and beautiful. Maybe in the future if people start to use their brains, we can have every child who is white and looks nice.

I'm sorry to be a little rude here, but aren't we supposed to be discussing philosophy and theories about life, not people's personal problems? I'm probably more than a little biased because I'm an early childhood education student and I love kids, but still. Whether you want kids or you don't, what difference does it really make? Some people want children, some don't. I agree that people should seriously think it through and decide whether they want children before they have sex. It's not about a population problem though, it's about the KIDS! They're not "problems" or things. They are what they are...Children...PEOPLE! As for the expectation of having children once you're married, I think for the most part, what difference does it make what other people want? It's your business, not theirs. Having a baby out of wedlock goes against the Christian, Catholic, and other religions, which make up a huge amount of the population, but other than that, as long as you're going to take care of the child, what difference does it make whether you're married or not? The main reason for waiting until you're married to have a child is the higher level of commitment that is SUPPOSED to be attached to marriage. Anyhow, I'm willing to hear all replies, good or bad.

Behind every stereo type comes truth. Take for instance the stingy Jew. Sure there are stingy Jews out there but not all Jews can be said to be stingy. Therefore you're not speaking for 100% of the population and thus shouldn't say it. Then you have to say well look at say their culture, income etc and you can see why a majority of a certain race can be perceived a certain way. Their simply taught to live a certain way as business men and practicality or whatever. Similar circumstances create similar results is probably the best way to put it.

"I love to see people struggling for their purpose in life..."

Ya'll know that at one time people actually thought life was directly related to having and raising their children. Obviously modern man has evolved beyond that menial type of existence?

"Terrorist or tyrant, few may come to the Truth that both are poor choice."

Many people still think this way. That life is incomplete if you never marry and have kids. But using that line of logic, life could be incomplete if you're never gone sky-diving or ate shark meat.

"Speak out, even if what you have to say is unpopular"

Having kids in many social groups these days is about image and convention. That shouldn't deter anyone from having children, but everyone should consider why they want to have kids in the first place.

"How can we be just in a world without mercy and merciful in a world without justice?"

having kids is an expected part of life, as its a biologically inbuilt mindset, people expect yo uto have children in order for the human race to carry on. many women at some point in their lives become "broody" (that may be a slighly oldfashioned english word for it, but i cant think of a better one) which means that they want kids, there may seem to be no apparent reason, but it is a basic desire to fulfil all of the bodies biological funtions, one of which is to raise the next generation of our society.

this does unfotunately appear to have been lost slightly, with some women, overcoming their basic instinct, and leaving their children to raise themselves. men are not exempt from the responsibility of it, but women seem to have lost more of their ability at it.

to answer cturtle, i dont think we totally have. and i hope we never will, it is a large and necessary part of our lives. it should not be all we do, but surely family and raising children is more important than doing well at work etc. but like i said, some people no longer think so. if we get to a stage where everyone thinks like that, the human race will fail.

"So Schrodinger's Cat is not only neither dead nor alive, but might also be sexually aroused by elbows and peanut butter?"

Cynical, what proof do you have that the broodiness of women is related to a desire to have children? It could be a million things.
