I have no kids but I don’t have 3 money.
Turns out being the sort of person who -specifically- doesn’t want to deal with any of the responsibility even tangentially related to kids also isn’t well suited for the responsibilities of a regular 40hr/wk year round job.. or being an independent adult at all really.
(It’s me and literally nobody else I’m speaking about above, just for the record)
That's a stretch, and maybe true for you, but the world is full of people, such as you described, that haven't got that issue. Not wanting kids doesn't automatically make you bad with responsibilities.
It only makes you a person that doesn't want kids.
Edit: I can't read
Literally said in the comment you replied to that I was talking about myself and nobody else (and it was never edited) so not sure why you responded with this.
Apologies, I'm not sure how, but I never saw the last paragraph
~~Righteous indignation~~ a fit of pique will do that, and I’ve been guilty in the past of the same.
No worries. I’m not painting with a broad brush, I’m recognizing myself in a way the others relate to :)
Have a great morning/day/afternoon/evening/night, depending where you are :D
Edit - I didn’t realize that righteous indignation has a specific religious meaning. I was aiming for less religious and more just sort of …defending the downtrodden. Is there a better word for that?
Edit 2: I learned strikethrough for this edit and it worked!!
Try the phrase "a fit of pique."
Yes that’s perfect, thank you for bringing my attention to that phrase.
