		<description>kudos to the millenials and Gen Z for proving that there is no such thing as the maternal instinct. so sad that parenthood is boiled down to the financial repercussions, and diapers. what a bout memories and relationship? To be fair, likely that Gen X&#039;ers and boomers didn&#039;t illustrate that so well</description>

		<description>I am Gen Z, but I want to have kids because if I have children they will be the oness to continue changing the world after we are old. Of course there are many reasons to not have children from the current state of the world or what it could become, but if we don&#039;t have children the human race will decline in population as a species and eventually we will go extinct(though if you are Christian like me then you know that we will all go to the afterlife soon. The final days are near or even are already here).</description>

		<description>I never wanted children I thought it would be okay for a little while and then I realized that they would be just sad and depressed like Gen Z.
I need to focus on my life not someone else&#039;s.- Esther</description>

		<description>I never wanted children either. I don&#039;t understand why you need to have children in this &quot;place&quot; it would make no difference and they&#039;ll just be depressed like us.</description>
