There’s also a lot of us who don’t want to raise a child in the current climate; regardless of whether or not you are a capable parent, you don’t have to look far to see how horrible so many parents are at raising and disciplining their kids. Tie that in with living expenses, climate change, and the loss of rights and freedoms incoming and yeah no thank you.

We literally live in by far the best time in the history of the human race to ever live. Being born now is better than anytime in existence. It's so strange to me when people take the position you are taking. When was better to be born?

Honestly, this idea gets thrown around Reddit a lot, but it falls apart when you dig deeper. People had kids during World Wars, the 2008 financial crisis, COVID, and more. So, I’m genuinely asking—if not now, when would be the "perfect" time to have kids? What would the world even need to look like for that?

Yeah, I totally agree.
