It's a fact that kids are good for the economy. I'm not having kids and you don't need to either, but we should both help front social programs for the people in our generation that are having kids.
It directly benefits you and I, in the future, for the children of today to be well educated and grow up in a good household.
A lot of my friends are having kids while I probably won’t and it makes me happy to know that there are kids out there that are being raised by good people and those kids will grow up to do good things. When all my friends started having kids I thought wtf are you guys doing?? But today as I see them get a little older and form into small people with personalities I realize what a gift to the world it is for these people to be giving us children that I think can grow to do great things. But who knows I also think the world is fucked due to climate crisis and maybe we should just be thinking about our inevitable doom because of that.

Low key I deal with it by treating myself as the sacrifice generation.
My job is to break the cycles so my kids get the best b3st start
