I Decide to Create this topic for people with Open-Minds and,

I need matured Responses on this.

While some people pray to have children and see it as a Gift from God,
Others dont want to have Kids.


People do have their Choices and should be Left alone to Decide,
Some see,
"CHILDREN AS A BURDEN"

While others Dont want to bring them Into this World,

They perceive to be Evil..




So am leaving this question to Nairalanders.

"What are the Disavantages of not having A Child"

Lets hear from you all.

You will know that when you are sick or in your old age.

If you like have 10 children and you're poor, you'll still suffer when you're sick or old.

Make money, children or no children, just have money...that's the only way to escape suffering at old age.

There's nothing like your own. I'm speaking from experience. With money some people will pretend to care for you just to fleece you. Imagine when you are old and sick without your own blood around you, how would you control your finance? Na for people to take advantage and loot as much as they can. My own is my own. Why do you think Seyi Tinubu is always around his father now that he is old unlike before that you will hardly see him with his father? Because Tinubu doesn't trust everyone around him.

The poster u quoted have a point!
U think children want burden?
Money is very important at old age especially for a man. I can't say for women.
Children will grow up to face their own family, & give the parents little to no attention.
Tinubu is rich & doesn't need any child to live a good life. What of the poor aged people around u, how many of them do u see with their kids? Seyi is around tinubu because of what he stands to benefit.

That's why having female children is important.

Then remain childless. That will be good.

Money won't give u that tender love and care that's the different....If you are sick ur children will be there to show u love which will motivate u...With ur money u can only pay people to take care of u but u ain't gonna get that blood feeling.

Fahdiga:

Remaining childless or having a child doesn't negate the fact the u will be needing money at old age. Reason the pension system was designed for workers. We always tend forget children will grow up to face their own family.

And where did I disputed that one doesn't need money at old age?

Huh?

Like I said in a similar thread viz:

Life comes in stages and you go
through those stages with your
peers...
Childhood
Adolescence
Adulthood
Then a stage comes where you are
expected to give birth to another
being,to be mature enough to be
responsible for another life..Now you
can choose not to do that but you
will be missing out on these;

The Joy of parenthood: whether we
admit it or not most of the things
man chases are vanities the only
thing that truly outlives us are our
kids.When people see them they see
your mark on earth.No amount of
Benz could buy the happiness you
feel at the sound of their voices and
laughter..

The companionship they bring:When
you are old and wrinkled.Their
presence adds more meaning to
life,their kids are there to give us the
perfect chaos....

The Pride of parenthood:This is self
explanatory...their wins are our wins
their joy ours we relive life through
them.

Having kids is not a guarantee to tender love and care, there is alot that plays part eg did you, yourself show love and care whe
their were growing up ? How much do they have to look after you money and time remember by then there are also grown up trying to set-up a future for their own kids and their own retirement

Though money wont buy you tender love and care but its gauranteed that i can look after and also tender love and care doesnt have come from kids only but also friends and community

Perfectly correct. A lot of people have professional nurses that do.home service in Nigeria. Some nurses even.like it because they nursing one patient instead of 4-20 in the hospital setting

This idea of a joy of parenting is an illusion of sorts that not all parents enjoy and only a few obviously subscribe to. Majority
