10 reasons not to have children

Birth.
Imagine pushing a grapefruit through your anus. Imagine it taking ten hours. Imagine that after ten hours of trying to push a grapefruit through your anus and failing that doctors cut a big hole in your belly to remove the grapefruit. Don’t believe anyone who says that they forget all about it in a few months.

2.
Responsibility. All of life’s prior responsibilities pale in comparison. If you decide to have a child, that new person must absolutelybe your top priority. As your child will remind you when he or she is older andsomething goes wrong, “I didn’t ask to be born.” A child is a life long commitment to a person whois innocent of this choice.


3. Diapers. Disposable diapers these days absorb lots of liquid, and they don’tleak. But you still have to change hundreds of them. Often they contain more than liquid. As the child getsolder, diapers become smellier and bigger tasks. Then there is toilet training,with its inevitable setbacks and accidents.


4. 3am wakeups. Caring fora child takes a lot of physical and emotional energy, made all the harderby babies that only sleep for ninety minutes at a time.Many parents of much olderchildren seem to forget howhard the first few months were as they look at the past with rose colored glasses. Don’t believe them.Parents need sleep to workwell, and they often can’t get it

5. Hard on marriages. A baby takes so much time and attention that spouses must already have a great friendship and work well together before the baby arrives. It is a certainty that one spouse will disagree with the other about decisions on how to care for the child. It is likelythat one spouse will resent the lost time with the other. A marriage with some difficulties will get much worse when a baby is crying and the parents are sleep deprived.

6
Advice. Total strangers leap forward to offer adviceabout how to raise your child. Most of the advice is contradictory and flat out wrong. Strangers will be much easier to ignore than your friends and family, many of whom have raised children quite successfully. Some advice you may want, but lots of it will be unsolicited and unappreciated.


7. Changed relationships. When your family expands by the addition of a child, your relationships with everyone, and I mean everyone, changes. Your child is at the forefront of most of your thoughts, and those people without children cannot relate. Those people with children are finally happy to see that you can relate. Everyone will watch how you raise your child and willat some point cluck and disapprove, including thosewho raised ten children andthose who raised none. Some strong bonds will weaken, some friends will not been seen again. Some may improve, but with your energies and devotions directed towards your child,that is much less likely.


8. Free time. You will have none. Most time not spent with your child will be spent catching up on work you need to get done. You and your spouse must carefully plan any time away from your child, and very little can be done spontaneously.To pretend otherwise is probably neglectful of eitheryour child or your spouse.


9. Worry. Parents always worry about their children, monitoring how fast they reach each milestone and how well they grow, eat, sleep, crawl, walk, read, make friends, and so on. And yet there is little a parent can do beyond allow a child to proceed at his or her own pace. It can be frustrating and scary when your child isn’t eating well, or cannot read at his or hergrade level, or is socially inept.


10. Money. Children are expensive in several ways. One parent loses wages while caring for a child. Children need to eat and be clothed. They needtoys with which to explore the world. They need health care, they need education, they need activities and hobbies. They will need car insurance. The proper raising of a child is not cheap
