When they're taking care of me near the end of my rope, then I'll believe it's worth it. Until then, they're just moochers. |

I just don't really want kids. No aspirations for that whatsoever. |

I guess some people would just rather look after themselves rather than have a child who will take most of their time to look after. They may also still have goals and aspirations and have a child may hinder their progress towards said goal. |

Very damn good question. I don't know. Objectively, though... In terms of how western life is today, you'd have to be insane to want kids in my opinion. They're a huge financial burden, more than anything. They're life-ruining. That's... That's all I see. Which maybe has something to do with it... As a social and intelligent species, we place more emphasis on society than most species will. We're able to be altruistic - you scratch my back I'll scratch yours mentality. It's pretty common amongst social animals for large percentages of the population to NOT breed. Think of a creature even as simple as bees! We have the added ability of foresight, so we can SEE that having a child is going to negatively impact our lives in ways other animals cannot. Note that not all species want their kids either - there are plenty of parasitic species who offload the care of their young onto others. Maybe if they were intelligent enough to have foresight, they wouldn't breed at all. Attributes that in the wild that kept us alive longer to breed and raise our slow-aging young are, in this man-made world, doing us damage. Stuff like, a taste for sugar - a valuable rarity in the wild world. Stuff like, not wanting to expel energy - you might need to later! Our brains are no different - our ability to predict and see how our actions will play out in our society will differ from the natural society to this false one we've created. |

I can't have kids anyway (through my own choices) but here is why I never wanted any (cynical as hell): - Very time consuming, you dedicate alot of your free time to raising the child instead of learning more for yourself / improving youreslf. - Expensive, having a child or two can cripple your income. - Never felt mature enough to raise children, often feel like a kid myself. - The horror / stress of something happening to your child (if it did) - Babies actually gross me out :P Theres a few other things probably but yeah, of course there is a side of me that knows ill miss out on all the love that comes from having a child, having a kid look up at you and say ''mummy / daddy I love you'' is probably the most precious thing in the world, but at least for the moment I could not cope with it. |

Keyboard Warrior 1. A Person who, being unable to express his anger through physical violence (owning to their physical weakness, lack of bravery and/or conviction in real life), instead manifests said emotions through the text-based medium of the internet, usually in the form of aggressive writing that the Keyboard Warrior would not (for reasons previously mentioned) be able to give form to in real life. 2. Keyboard Warriors are generally identified by unneccessary rage in their written communications, and are regarded as 'losers' by other virtual identities on the internet. | |

I'd rather have a cat return to you after getting lost than a kid saying he loves me. |

Possible reasons to why people won't have kids IMO: -Peoples hate kids:If these people just hate kids in general, what would make you think that they would like to have any ? -Economy:Some people are really unlucky, they can barely support themselves.Adding kids would let you and your children suffer. -Bad Parenting:Perhaps someone acknowledges that he would be a bad parent, and thus decides to never become one ? -Overpopulation:It's a problem(however it's a lesser threat than Over-consumption), adding millions of newborn each year would make it worse(thank god for deaths). These were the only one I could think of. |
