    I never wanted kids, they just don’t interest me and the cost is exorbitant. Spoke to a refugee lady at vwork and she had kids whilst on the run from government gumen. Oh you just have them and worry about it later… it’s a totally different attitude. In the west you need 3 jobs and a paid off home plus a nutritionist to consider it, in other places it just happens and noone questions your eating habits under fire. I think i agree with the non westerners on this, have them or don’t, just stop making it a rigmarole.

      The privileged are blessed/cursed with the breathing space for foresight, anticipating and trying to avoid all the pitfalls and problems that they can foresee… which are endless. People in survival mode are living day-to-day, hand-to-mouth, and have no time to consider their long game.
