I'm an antinatalist. I don't think life is a miracle. I think people who want to be parents should make adoption their first choice. I also think the world would be better off without humans, but I won't drag you down with all that hogwash.

This is how I think and how I live mine. However, while a proponent of this philosophy I am not a prophet. I would never tell another person how to live their life.

I agree. Think of all the children in this world who were abandoned, or taken from abuse or poverty, living in shelters waiting for someone to love them. And then there's people who just pop 'em out like crazy. We need to take care of those who can't take care of themselves before we make more of them, seriously. If I wanted kids, that would be my first choice. (That's why we're adopting cats from the shelter - they need parents or they will die alone.)

Humans are slowly destroying the planet. (But that's really a whole different topic.) I honestly dislike most people I meet, as they seem to have heads full of goddamn rocks.

And then there's the cool people with their well-behaved children. You go, cool people who actually wanted children and didn't just have them because society told you to. (And surprisingly, those people are usually the ones who are the least hateful toward the child-free!)

If I ever want children (which I don't think I do) I would probably adopt, my mum was adopted and I really appreciate the great life my grandparents gave to her. I just don't see why I should have a kid when there's loads of children out there who don't have a home, mum or dad.



I would just like to point out Ladyislingering, child birth doesn't necessarily ruin your figure/body, my sister has a kid and she has a stretch mark free stomach, meanwhile I'm child free and honestly have stretch marks everywhere and I've got them from simply being fat before.

I am a birth mother, so yes I have children but in the same respect, I don't... I chose to give my child all the things that I couldn't provide her with at the point in my life..she is 6 now..and I wouldn't change that. I would also never presume to tell another person how, and what to do with their life... So I dig it... ( I would be lying if I said I don't enjoy being childless... It's a double edged sword..because I get the maternal ache when I see a child that resembles mine..)
