The country hates breeders

I've reviewed lots of breeder regret since being stuck inside during a heat wave.
Lots of breeders are whinging that the US hates breeders because they aren't getting six months to a year of paid leave nor do they get free daycare, free insurance, free care for the defecto-loaf their doctor warned them about (geriatric pignasty).

I just find it so interesting that breeders get the lion's share of tax breaks and are virtually the only ones that qualify for other freebies yet it isn't good enough until everything is free. Yet there are regretful parunts in lots of countries (UK, AU, ZA, PO) some that include those ones with all the freebies (which obviously aren't free by any stretch of the imagination).

Never mind that anyone can open a short/long term disability policy and then use it while inpig. The "free" insurance means everyone waits in lines and only the most urgent cases are treated. You want treatment, you pay extra for private insurance. "Free" daycare isn't free and does a good parent want to hand over their toadlers to someone else to raise and influence? Those brats are for the most part huge oversized baybees that aren't yet toilet trained.

Favorite regretful parunt from The Guardian article
Anyone who says they loved being a parent,” wrote another mother, “is a liar or on drugs.

This one is reflecting back what I've always suspected!

Input from kid perspective - The Guardian article
Take it from the child of an anxious, self-centred, narcissistic, psychopathic mother and a selfish, abusive and ultimately absent father,” another contributor posted. “Your daughter may seem unaffected by your bad choices, but trust me, she’s been affected.

I'm betting this one is childfree! Children typically aren't able to articulate their feelings about this subject until they reach adulthood.


Here are some articles I quickly found but the popularity of such articles has taken off since the pandemic, so it is an easy search with tons of results:

individual stories... what is really needed are percentages...

if that old ann landers impromptu survey from several decades past is any indication at least 70% of people regret becoming parents.

you know what? after all this time and the increasing visibility of cf people, you make a mistake and breed? sux to be you. boo hoo moo hoo

CERTIFIED HOSEHEAD!!!

people (especially women) do not give ONE DAMN about what they inflict on children and I defy anyone to prove me wrong

Dysfunctional relationships almost always have a child. The more dysfunctional, the more children.

The selfish wants of adults outweigh the needs of the child.

Some mistakes cannot be fixed, but some mistakes can be 'fixed'.

People who say they sleep like a baby usually don't have one. Leo J. Burke

Adoption agencies have strict criteria (usually). Breeders, whose combined IQ's would barely hit triple digits, have none.

And on top of all the freebies and tax breaks they already get, breeders are doing a SHIT JOB of parunting. The raging entitlement and general brattiness of kids and young people nowadays is a big factor in our deteriorating society. It’s not fun getting older (I’m 61), but honestly….I’m glad I’m not much younger than I am. Wow, that’s depressing!
