[Meme] The people have spoken.
As in a baby goat, right?

one advantage of a kid is eventually you stop having to clean up their poop…. I’m sure I’ll think of another one…
Depends on the kid…
Put Depends on the kid?
Sure but someone will have to clean that up still.
They now the grass at an early age if you leave them outside while hungry, too.
Maybe some day, they might clean up your poop.
Kids are damn funny though. I have really enjoyed the phase where they go from looking up at us to …reconsidering and now they basically mock us and look down on us as teenagers.
The banter is fantastic!
admittedly I did encourage them to be cheeky when little and we had a ton of fun with silly games and hallway piggy in the middle stiff which gave them a solid sense of humour and seems to have somehow included them having a read on what’s ‘going too far’, but this been so worth it
Sure, the first 3 years are really hard, that’s just the state of high dependency they come from.
Another one is that it’s like a puppy who learns to talk and you can play videogames with it
Damn, kids are pets now?
climate change is crazy
kids are pets now?

Having a kid as a pet is a very, very bad idea
Having a kid
as a petis a very, very bad ideaFixed it for you

Why the jk? It’s ok to not want kids.
And people who don’t want kids shouldn’t have kids, and that too is ok.
But those who don’t want kids need to have patience for those that do and make concessions for them for the obvious reasons.
I did chuckle at your post by the way, but it’s complicated…
Why the jk? It’s ok to not want kids.
Because, while that’s absolutely true, claiming that it’s objectively a bad idea for anyone to have kids would risk starting a huge discussion not worth the time and effort 🤷🏻

Which is why I included the jk rather than pretend to be serious about my universal condemnation of breeding 😄
Fair. I like your style and realism here.
Double, because if you think of your kid as “a pet” instead of “a future adult that you kind of can only traumatize but otherwise they’ll turn out however they want to turn out”… You definitely shouldnt be having kids.
I think a “pet” would actually be quite an improvement in many cases.
C/childfree is leaking
It’s less a leak and more me literally crossposting from there on purpose 😄
Never took care of a kid so I can’t make my own judgement but …best pet to have?
Yes, subs of 196, you're being called out yet again
Puppy girl on a leash. They are so cute :*
Ayagya yayyyy
best pet to have?
This cutie

Life’s short, why spend the majority taking care of a kid(s). I love my cats though.
Couldn’t agree more on both counts 😁 🥰
Peeve!
