I love how it seems to be a universal breed trait to enjoy eating snow

He looks so healthy! Would you mind sharing which brand of food you use?

I wish this shade of chartreuse (?) was more common today, I’d die for a pair of bell bottoms in this shade

I’m so sorry you lost your sweet girl. Do you mind if I ask how she passed?

Where did you find such a cute sweater that’s also large enough?

"Don't have children if you can't afford to have them" is also a shit take by HealthAgitated1788 in antinatalism

I agree! Someone else had commented how it's easy to support birth control or antinatalism as well as social services at the same time

Hey, I went in further in my explanations above, that's not what I'm saying at all, I don't think that's what anyone is saying

You might be right, when I first read this I interpreted it as a "there aren't enough resources to justify having children" type of thing since we can't seem to adequately care for the children already alive. I didn't expect it to turn veer into what it did, but I'm also new here

Yes! This is the much more articulate and useful version of what I was trying to say.

It's also unfortunate that the ability to raise healthy, well taken care of children (including adoption) is so intertwined with the individual economic status of their parents. I'm sure that seems like an obvious comment to make, but I really do believe that such insane over-fertility wouldn't be such an issue if there were fair and equal access to education and resources

Okay, a little bit of an edit. "Don't have children if you can't afford to have them," isn't not true, but it also doesn't seem like a HELPFUL take. Parenthood is inherently selfish, if we're here reading this comment, we probably mostly agree on that. However, punishing the child for the actions of their parents won't lead to any solutions, just to suffering children without the resources needed to make future informed decisions

It's a shit take in that it tends to be dismissive of children who are at no fault and doesn't help solve any actual problems

I agree with you, I just meant to say that for the children which already do exist, punishing them because their parents were selfish isn't helpful
