Good evening all. I didn’t know how to best articulate my subject line so I apologize. What I mean by that is in our society we have this notion children are”off-limits.” You can’t judge or criticize them, they are sacrosanct and pure and innocent and represent all these endless possibilities and potential and all that. You should hear some of the things that come out of my niece’s mouth, but that’s neither here nor there. What bugs me is the rampant double standard and exploitation of children going on , inherently with this. Don’t hide your politics / message behind a human shield of children to silent dissent about it. Secondly, I know many people continue to make the mistake of reproducing and they have a vested interest in children themselves. More and more people are making less and less interesting offspring and they overwhelmingly growing up to be terrible human beings. Drop the children as saints act. They’re just tomorrow’s scumbags.

What makes you think children are self sufficient in any motive or articulation to begin with. There simply isn’t that kind of capability.
Does your sibling know that you feel this way about your niece?
I’m not really sure what you are trying to articulate here. Children can be mean and grow up into assholes, sure. I’m not sure why this fact is something I would put into an ad trying to sell home insurance or soft drinks or whatever.
Reddit is very anti-natalist at the best of times but you for just this one post, will change that by being so unlikable
