to me i think it’s cuz we see too many ppl who don’t want kids make it seem like having kids is the worst ever. i want kids, idc if others don’t that’s their business and choice, but when i say i want them, suddenly im a horrible selfish person that just doesn’t want to die alone, so it’s like ppl are just doing the reverse, if that makes sense? NOT JUSTIFYING IT BTW
I did actually have an ex who started getting aggressive with me when I told him I don’t want kids and he started going on about how I was threatening his family/blood line and told me “if you want to die alone be my guest” so it’s not unheard of for some to have kids just so they’re not alone. But I do understand that doesn’t apply to everyone
