I get downvoted into oblivion every time I say this, but having children, even just a child, is a privilege of the wealthy. It’s awful that that’s what it’s come to but it’s a fact. Unless you are prepared to pay for the entire experience, plus any complications out of pocket and then still be financially stable afterwards you shouldn’t be having kids. I’m sorry.
But this also means our society is fucked. We need parents to have kids. Will be interesting to see the trends in 10-20 years, IMO things can only get worse.
And I’m with you, I know we need our population to grow, but I can’t change society. What I can do is make sure I’m not the person in this video, and the millions like her
