The Myth That Children Make You Unhappier

[four1298]

Babies are bundles of joy. Their smiles and laughter are contagious. They inspire positive emotions among their parents. They're proud of themselves to have accomplished something so important and essential. They feel good about themselves for having contributed to the world.

Really, does it even matter if they make you unhappy? They're like a part of you, so their joy is yours.

We know that men are more likely to successfully commit suicide than women. Perhaps this is because the duty of parenthood primarily falls on women. Most single parents are women. This is why women commit less suicide. Childlessness pushes men to heightened suicidal urges, culminating in the use more effective means of suicide.

According to The Bible, children are a gift. Since when do gifts cause unhappiness? On the contrary, they cause joy. This myth is incompatible with Christianity. What's next? Saying Christmas causes unhappiness?

According to this review, altruism is correlated with happiness (and longevity). Perhaps it's causation. Parenthood is a form of altruism.

I don't think about ever having kids because i know i never will have any but in an ideal life where everything was good for me i would have liked to have kids.

Children don't make you unhappy. Look at the antinatalist community. Their belief is that life is suffering.

 

[SyrianSchizoSage]

not being to provide for your children is the worst possible feeling that is why ppl don't have kids because they don't want to pass on modern world suffering onto a child

Unfortunately they banned commercial surrogacy in India. It used to cost just $20,000 according to Bryan Caplan though Idk if foreigners were allowed to do that.

Nutters are mentally insane individuals. They believe a mutt can be a substitute for a human child. I wouldn't mind having children IF I had good genes. But I wouldn't want someone to suffer a shit life with genetic traits they inherited from me.

 

[FuckYou]

Children make me VERY happy

 

[ParasiteToSociety]

Having children is cucked.

[subhumanmonkey]

Always wanted to have a family so that I could give them the love I never had but my genes cucked me. No one is willing to reproduce with me so it’s isolation for the rest of my life

 

[PersonalityChad]

[EcstasyCel]

[undertaker77]

I will never have children because no foid wants to have children with me.

 

[nazianime]

I don’t think kids make you unhappy unless you are selfish already or in a bad marriage.

That being said I hate kids, since I was a kid I hated loud kids. I am sure if I had more positive childhood then I would want kids.

I'd love to have kids of my own but that's out of the equation. Having children; nurturing them with expectations must be some of the grandest things in life and I don't blame my parents for putting high expectations on me because of that.

 

[poorenglishcel]

I will never believe anything that comes out of a sex haver's mouth. Fucking privileged faggots.
