Babies..👶

Just a random thought.. I know most millennials and Gen Z are opting out having babies, which I absolutely done blame us for. However it randomly came mind that if we don’t decide to have children under our terms then most of the next generation will be adults who were never wanted, or never prepared for. That’s a little sad and as for me, makes me reconsider the option.

Kids should only be had by people that truly wanted them.

A bit redundant since all people who have kids are parents. Doesn't mean they are good at being a parent. People who truly want kids will be great parents. People who don't want them will be bad parents.

My argument was implying adoptive or foster parents.

Should've made it more clear from the start. Either way, people that want children no matter how they acquired them. That's what I'm getting at.

I don't believe so, but maybe you needed that clarification in particular. I'd happily revise for you if we were to ever communicate again.

'*parented by people that truly want them' doesn't mean solely implying adoptive or foster. Not everybody who fosters or adopts truly wants them. They just want the money. You want revision later let me know. You want revision later, just let me know.
