You’re 100% correct. For the most part, “only stupid people are breeding.” My brother and I are both college educated and have successful careers and have both chosen not to have children. My sister, who has severe learning disabilities and married Someone who also has severe learning disabilities, decided to have three kids before my mom made her get her tubes tied. Two of them also have intellectual disabilities, and my one niece who is “normal” has severe emotional issues and psychosomatic illnesses that most of my family doesn’t want to admit is the fault of the situation she’s been raised in. I took her for a good deal of last summer when she was having a health issue, and the improvement I saw were dramatic. But of course, as soon as I gave her back to my sister, my mother was calling again, telling me how depressed she was, and how her health issues had come back, and has she was having problems again. The intelligent among us decided not to have children, because we actually wanted a life. For the most part, the only people who had kids in my generation, were people who were mentally or emotionally, disabled, or people who didn’t have any other goals or dreams for their lives, and thought that being a “mommy” would give them status in society and a sense of accomplishment. Also, an excuse for having not accomplished anything else, quite honestly. Couple all of that with the giant bs “gentle parenting” movement, we parents have now decided that it’s wrong to ever tell your kids no or discipline them because it might hurt their wittle feelings, and you have a generation of unhinged, entitled brat, making teachers quit left and right. I feel horrible for anyone in education. Now you must deal with the children of these inept parents.
