This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

This is it. Parent your kids is a cop out statement.
Don't have kids if you can't raise them well. Also, less slaves to feed into the machine.
That's a cop out.
A cop out is when an adult skirts responsibility by saying "society is fucked, how could I ever be responsible for taking real care of my own chuldren??". Again. If you can't, use protection, don't have kids. Society is fucked, yes, but adults must be responsible.
A cop out is insisting parents know all and do all alone while they live in this big society even though we all know it's impossible.
A lot harder to agree with this statement when the abortion laws have regressed so much so recently.
Accidents can happen, but if you use two contraceptive methods in tandem, it severely reduces the risk of pregnancy. It's not impossible, it just needs one to be a responsible adult. And, obviously, we should be more vocal about sex education.
I hear you, And heck even pull out is pretty effective. Mix that with one actual contraceptive and you're basically golden. Unintended pregnancies aren't that hard to avoid.
I still think your comment sucks. Basically implies poor people don't deserve to have children, and the literal driving force of our species should be reserved as a luxury for people who can afford to have one adult not work.
