Five anti-childfree points



and their opposition/clarification

1. Kids will support you when you get old.



b) It's also sad, but true, that many parents will die, before get old.

Reasons? A lot: car accidents, cancer, crimes, wars... We're living in an imperfect world.



Also -- there are some congenital disorders (more about the below). Some kids are born (will be born) disabled and then the parents (parent) are the ones (is the one), who should take care and support their (his/her) disabled kid/kids.

2. Kids are so cute.

Besides 'cute', 'pretty', etc. are very subjective, the fact is that some babies (and later -- kids) have different congenital disorders. Some of them makes the kid to look... very different and... probably most of the people will describe it as anything but not cute!

3. It's a big fun to chat and play with your kids.

May be for many people it is, but some of the kids are hostile, some of the kids are even with mental disorders (also known as psychiatric or psychosocial disability) and I think it's not 'big fun' to chat and play with most of them.

4. Childfree people hate kids.

Not everyone childfree person hates kids. Well, probably some hate them, some only dislike them ('hate' and 'dislike' are different), some like and even love kids. Yes, I know people who like or even love kids, but they're childfree, because they do not want kids at home; they can't afford the responsibility; they're poor and so on, and so on, and so on.

5. Kids grow up very fast.

Well, 'fast' for someone is 1 month, for another one it is 20 years. Again here we deal with a subjective and RELATIVE category. But, let's say that kids grow up 'fast'. And then, most of them, will have kids and you, when you're old and you deserve some good rest, you should start to take care and/or at least deal with GRANDKIDS. I can see often pity old people, who have to run after grandkids, who have to quarrel with grandkids, who have to suffer because of the grandkids... I feel so sad and so bad, when I see them...

Best wishes to you all!

As a philosopher, I'd like to clarify and oppose to some anti-childfree statements.
