Completely agree. I thought it was pretty well known that once you have kids your life changes and you now have to make sacrifices. Some parents clearly don’t feel that way, and those people are selfish assholes.
There’s a reason I never had children of my own; because I know I’m selfish and enjoy my freedom too much. If you too want the freedom of someone without kids, it’ll either cost you in childcare, or you better have a strong family support system
That’s the number one excuse I see, including in this thread. “Parenthood just changes your life so much”. Right. Your life. Not mine. So the whole “It just affects us so much, we can’t get out much”. Right, was that a secret before you decided to have kids? I know that, it’s why I’m not having kids, because I enjoy doing things like going out regularly to places kids can’t be at, traveling, and generally having a quiet house. Call me selfish, but I know what I want and I’m not going to bring kids into this world if I know I’m going to resent them for changing my life.
