The modern incarnation of America is not the America I had the privilege of growing up in.
As a dad of two little ones, I do worry occasionally about what the future holds. But I also know what kind of father I am to them and what kind of mom they have. I have every intention on raising my kids to be smart, respectful and capable of standing up for themselves. When they are old enough to understand, they will be taught that nothing in life is handed to them, the must go and earn it! They will also be taught about the founding principles of this country and why, more than ever, we must trust in the Constitution. |

Quoted: It is frightening-I look at my community: a small rural town. The high school graduates about 300 students annually. I would say about a 1/3 of the female students are pregnant with 1-3 children by at least two baby daddies within their first 5 years of graduation. Maybe a quarter of the girls will be traditional, college, jobs, marriage, kids etc and the rest have no interest in marriage or children. of the first 1/3 the majority of these kids lack basic skills, such as how to discern political candidates, how to research legislation that they will vote on. And they lack basic living skills, such as having an emergency fund, living within their means, saving towards a goal. Overall I have yet to talk to a gen z who is interested in politics-including my own son (who incidentally isn't interested in marriage or children-though he's young-I doubt he will change.) I did teach my son conservative ideals but he is ridiculous about voting. He does sort of vote. He brings me his ballot and I technically have two votes. I do go through it with him and explain each measure and give arguments for both sides so he can decide. I am biased af so he votes as I would vote. He doesn't care and I can't make him care. He's a 4pt student in Areospace engineering program. He is capable but he doesn't care. View Quote It's information overload because of the internet. Instead of young people being young people; we're very aware we live in a system controlled by a global pedo ring with no end in sight. Or on the other side, they believe everyone is racist and the world is about to burn. I vote in every election. Does it matter? Not in the slightest. These are nowhere near the worst times in the world. Daily life in the western world is amazing. But we are much more aware of the dark horrors of reality than any global population in history. |

Anyone that worships at the church of climate change, probably should not be having kids anyway.

Quoted: I can't blame them, with each passing year the world just seems to be getting worse. View Quote That is the way to go, bend over and spread your cheeks. Submission is much easier than standing up to be counted.

Quoted:
while true, this is a cynical and self destructive take, IMO. I'm not religious AT ALL, but I will say the bible has a lot of wisdom in it. It promotes a strong work ethic, strong families, human decency, respect for others. As the bible and Christianity have been removed from American culture, our society has experienced an attendant decline. If you want to oppose that decline, embrace a biblical ethos. View Quote |

I’m raising my two daughters the way my parents raised me.
They’re going to be a couple shining stars in this dark and gloomy world. Don’t be such a pussy OP. |

If the elders would step away from the buffet after filling their plates, as their forefathers did, the outlook would be much different.
The Original Me Generation, on the whole, always looking for itself and never liking what they find isn’t conducive to them getting out of the way either. |

Quoted: When I was younger, I thought I wanted to be a mother, but now that I'm an adult, I don't want kids. I decided I didn't want to be a parent during college when I realized how hopeless the future seemed, from the economy to the climate. I also don't believe in the American dream enough to try to chase it while raising another human, and neither do my friends. The members of Gen Z I know tend to believe in the American dream less than the generations before us. Most of my friend group just doesn't see a path in the future where we have a good, stable job and can afford both a house and a family. We've seen the crash of the economy, how there are fewer jobs than applicants, and salaries that aren't rising to meet inflation levels. Climate change is disastrous, and the prices of daily goods just keep getting higher and higher. What about this situation is supposed to make young people want to have kids? moar View Quote Yep, the world is a mess, and it's harder for those youngsters just starting out in some ways. While the "Got married in 1981 when Reagan was President, and bought a house for 11 raspberries and sent all my kids to college on 1 income, despite being average of intellect and average looking (PS: Wife was a virgin 7/10, and wouldn't drop me for not traveling enough) (oh and all my very average friends did the same, and that was a reasonable expectation for a life at the time)" crew has their heads absolutely up their fuckin asses as to how things have changed, Young people have a choice. If you want your family line to carry on, do your best, leave it all on the field. If you're a young man, maybe that means getting hitched at 40 when you're in a place to have kids. Maybe it's having 1 or 2, not 3 or 4. Might mean searching forever for a suitable woman - it likely will mean precisely that. It's difficult, it's hard, a "normal" life expectation of yesteryear is now a "wow he's doing great" tier thing for most people in most places - only the most dense and obtuse think different at this point. But the alternative is lay down and quit. "Eh, having expensive toys is more important, and always will be more important, than having a family, a living legacy." Count me out of that ^. TLDR: For young people, your life is about "Yards after Contact." Yep, life's going to throw shit at you, and it hurts, and some of life's challenges do hit you pretty hard. But if you chip away and make progress each time, you can win that way in the long run. |

Quoted: high quality tradwife material gets picked off early in montucky and is protected. high school/college at the latest. post college the dating landscape in montucky is a goddamn wasteland. particularly if you're seeking that high quality wife/mother material. View Quote Yup. Same as here in big city, Texas. If she's available after college; there's a damn good reason. And GD dads are too progressive for arranged marriages for their 22 year old daughters so what are upstanding gentlemen like you and I to do? |

Eh, saying you are not having kids because you think you're not ready or haven't met the the right person is totally understandable.
Saying your never having kids because of climate change is mental illness. Seriously, these people need help. |

Quoted: How ignorant are some people? What is gen z, a bunch of weak ass quitters? F you gen z, I'm raising an army. Children are the future generations.

Get married to the most reasonable, intelligent chick you can find after college or you get established in a trade—AFTER you get all your wild oats and partying out of your system. Have fun for a few years then start having kids. You may or may not get divorced in 5 years or 30. But, raise your kids with no illusions about how this country works and how the rest of the world works.
This country is run by corrupt scum and you always have to protect yourself and have a plan. The rest of the world is way worse. A corrupt, fetid shitshow. Never trust a foreigner unless you know them REALLY WELL. Yeah, your kids will be cynical and jaded by the time they reach high school, but it will allow them to navigate this world and be successful. |
