Despair
I feel very undermined and suppressed
埋没人才
I think I will never have kids
I will live a sad and hard life and die alone
I need to think of a way to stop the stupid agents from taking all my money

why must have kids? have is ok no have also ok
seriously if u rly go think, have kids if healthy all these and avg smart then ya ok. also might not be nice or filial to u
worse is sick or sth go crazy over bgr
frankly it's not dont want kids but it's rly a super ultra heavy commitment........ 200k is minimum of the most minimum liao we all know. that one is if ur kid is super healthy super smart get scholarship etc
who doesnt want to have kids who are good in everything then take v little money from u and give u lots of money when u are old?
but if im also not like that as a child, then what if my kid worse off? i think all these puts people off tbh. nowadays people think too much

There's the joy of raising kids
But I barely have enough money to take care of myself I cannot afford to have a kid/cat/dog
Western societies are more inclined towards the kids once grown up being individuals independent of their parents
In Chinese culture if the parents have many children the siblings can take care of their parents together when they are old. If only child.. all these only childs can send their parents to nursing home to be collectively taken care of imo
Having children is overrated
Many parents themself dun even know why they have kids. They just follow or give in to societal pressure believing it's the right thing to do and having children is a joy. A joy to who? A joy to the couple who get to experience parenthood? Everything revolves ard the parents' checklist. Bring joy to them, they experienced parenthood, life is complete etc bs
To a certain extent, I compare this to doing volunteer work. It should bring joy to the recipient not so about the giver's feelings. Or giving a present on special occasion, the recipient should be the one who benefit the most not the giver. The giver dun buy whatever he/she likes, instead should buy whatever recipient like

Well said.
Also Parents be like: i buy whatever i like for my child because it's for my child's own good. I am the breadwinner so my child cannot choose.
Enjoy the process (sex) and not the product (having children). Bundle of joy, right. Most parents only know how to give birth, feed and provide shelter for their child. Parents directly educating and accompanying the child throughout their development years is almost non-existent. Outsourced to maid, grandparents and teachers :flash:

For the last part about accompanying children throughout, I think at least in sg context, not so simple. In sg, have to be dual income just to survive

Yah, sg environment is not conducive to have kids. Import aliens sua.

if the children born to this world grow up to really love life and enjoy what they do in life they should really thank their parents

joy or not i dont know. kids are only cute until 6yo
after that maybe they become rebellious and give a lot of other problems also like i mentioned. if got then ok dont have also ok very often not within control

ya thats why u alr said. there's a caveat to it.
i thank my parents for bringing me up they are good parents but do i really love life? even if i do the slightest bit (which is really not a lot) u still have to die at the end.
i feel my life is lacklustre and bad compared to peers (the people i go to sch with, work with), of course i cannot say my parents didnt try to give me their best
i dont think i can be as selfless as them and theres always the chance that me being a terrible kid will have worse off kids
then going back to cost of living and life from here on, with AI all those etc......... it's harder to live now compared to decades ago
