I know this is a kinda old post but I am new here and just have to drop my two cents about the old “my life was Meaningless until I had kids” bs. As a woman I find this statement particularly offensive. I personally have no desire for kids so I guess my life is MEANINGLESS, that I am WORTHLESS (unless I am a breeder) and that I am just simply DELUDED into thinking I am a valuable human being because I have not fulfilled my PURPOSE ON EARTH. This kind of tripe makes me really sad and it is the parents that propagate this type of shaming (note I didn’t say “hate speech” because I am not a self absorbed moron)that need to STFU. (*Sigh, I feel better now)

Oh just take a chunk out of my ass…”even during the pregnancy” it was all wonderful. Yeah let me guess this is also one of those guys that goes around saying “we’re” pregnant. Really? when did he miss a period? Did he gain weight, stretch marks, swollen ankles, did his water break, was his vagina on display for a room full of strangers while ‘they’ went through child birth and had a gooky alien rip him to the point of needing stitches???. Give me a fucking break!!!

Oh, OF COURSE he couldn’t possibly finish the e-mail without mentioning his fucking sprog. He was almost done writing it and then he realized, “Oh wait! Gotta mention that I’m not a virgin! MUST MENTION KID!!” These breeders are physically incapable of not bringing up their fucktrophies in every conversation.

He showed at Bratfree and said some HORRIBLE things to members over there.

“…absolutely nothing has ever compared to the birth of my son who is now 15 months. Without question, it has been the best 24 months of my life (from pregnancy to present)”

I despite this condescending shit. The best 24 months of your life? Your kid is TWO. I don’t want to hear how breeding is “all worrrrrrrrth it” at such an early stage. You have yet to deal with a cranky gradeschooler, a sullen middleschooler, or a rebellious teenager. Come back in 16 years and look me in the eye and tell me all woorrrrrth it. Plenty of surveys, including Ann Landers one from the 1970s, say otherwise.

Stop trying to delude yourselves. Stop condescending to those of us who have chosen not to breed. We don’t believe you anyway.

I think that people who say there lives were meaningless before they had kids are people who will be miserable regardless of where their lives take them. My life was meaningful before children, and is no less meaningful after them. I also think that parents who complain about lack of sex or sleep are pathetic. Stop letting your kids run your lives, get off your lazy ass and RAISE them, and then maybe you will be able to carve some adult time.

I love this site, I wish more breeders would see it for what it is, a condemnation of bad parenting, not all parents. And a celebration of choice.

I had a good laugh at this comment on the Daddy Blogger’s 10/16 whine:
“However, you have enlightened me to this whole other faction of humans that is very very bizarre and disturbing. Like, you know there are white supremecists in the world, but you just think they live only in a small village in South Carolina and you put it out of your mind that this intolerant subsection of humanity exists…and then BAM, you are confronted with them and their very existence is throw into your world and its like WHOA, get the hell out of here. I don’t want to know you. Yeah, that’s totally how I feel right now. I’m going to go away now and hopefully tomorrow I will have forgotten that this child-hating faction exists and I never want to speak nor hear of this again.”

Lol, sheltered much? She sounds like she’s never seen a tampax before in her life. Or a condom, for that matter.

“Nothing in my life meant anything until I had a son!”

You know, something that stupid always makes me have visions of walking up to the person who said it and asking them point-blank what they’d have done if they’d had a daughter. Their potential reacion amuses me; it’d probably involve stammering, hemming-and-hawwing, and some variety of foot-in-mouth syndrome.

Amen, sister. I don’t waste my time on flame wars, or even reading troll posts. I’ve got too many other things to de with my time. Things like updating my Wiki, playing with my cats, and cleaning the gunk out from under my nails.

And this guy? Someone seriously needs to tell him that the world doesn’t revolve around him and his over-inflated ego. 9_9

Damn, this was great. I completely agree that you didn’t say anything inflammatory, Phoena. He blew this whole thing WAY out of proportion. Besides, what his daddy friend posted was the truth in a joke disguise and everyone knows it. The difference is that childfree people put a decent amount of thought into childrearing whereas most parents just swallow the pro-parenthood agenda that society shoves down our throats. There is a chance that he could be the happiest he’s ever been now that he has his own little drooling, shitting, crying replica, but how bout we check back in… say… 14 years and see how much he loves parenthood.
