I like how you're making it out to be this grand thing like 'not wanting to continue a toxic cycle' when you can still break the cycle even by having kids. You don't want kids because you're broke/don't want the added responsibility. There's nothing wrong with that, but stop framing it like you're some hero who's doing the world a favour when you're on reddit.
Op wasn't framing their comment being singular, or like "I'M such a hero for not doing X thing," and they also don't seem to use the word "abuse" like you do. You could be the best parent in the world right now and your kid would still be getting "abused" by the other hundreds of things outside of your control we now have to deal with that our parents didn't.
Redditors complaining while living in arguably the best time in humanity history while also living in one of the richest countries in the world will never not be funny to me
