yeah I dont understand how people have kids in this time. and I am talking about this late stage capitalist hellscape where corporations exploit every single possible avenue for profit. from youTube and its ad blocking to rental agencies exploiting renters. how can you look at the state of the world and decide to bring another human into this world? that is just setting them up to be tortured.Yeah.... I had mine straight after the second child.
My financial future is kind of fucked, except they are both really intelligent (especially my son) and may get scholarships. I hope. I have investment funds specifically set up for education, I have a bunch of money that would fund high school, or university. The "or" there worries me. I'm not made out of money.
Many of those numbers are within my current monthly salary range, so for ten months I would be working for the school.
Unless I get fired, then I am fucked.
there is not nearly enough place for children to go and play, I am not talking about our country being unsafe, I mean urban sprawl worldwide and the reliance on cars has left us living in a place where a park is a luxury, and being able to be safe while going for a bike ride in the suburb is too big of an ask because there are too many cars and too many people.
that is not even covering the flaws in the education system globally not just here.
