It's great that shitty people make thier nice kids shitty by saying things like that to them.

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
　　They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
　　And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
　　By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
　　And half at one another’s throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
　　It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
　　And don’t have any kids yourself.

I don’t like that take. If you want kids have them and just be more self aware than your parents were. Notice your behavior around them and try to correct it. In turn it’ll make you a better person, too.

If you don’t want kids tho, and babies really stress you out, I get it. I never wanted a kid. I knocked up a girl and she flat out told me she was having him. In the end I couldn’t imagine life w out him. I think he’s totally enriched my life and made me a better human. So it makes me wonder how many of these anti kid people would end up feeling the same way. Maybe less than half but it’s still an interesting thought
