Beremx:
i became a parent because I wanna have kids. No other reason

Samuelnze:
I am Not a parent yet.
The modern parenthood and parenting style is nothing to write home about..
There should be a form of licence given to mothers and their husbands when they give birth showing they have become parents and should equally be revoked when they fu*k up as parents..How can someone give birth to 7children all in the name of looking for a son,once they have gotten the son,it ends here. To now train all of them will be difficult. They will now give them out in modern day slavery(boy~boy,househelp etc).. Even when the children are going through hell in the hands of their masters,they still tell them to be patient,that the storm will pass away.. I so much love westerners when it comes to giving birth because one child is enough for them not minding the sex of the child.

To breed instruments in the hands of GOD, Yeshua the Prince of Peace. This world is a huge chess game. The two players, who have been at this for aeons, are the Prince of Peace and the prince of this world. The chess pieces are human beings, angels and demons. The purpose of procreation for folks like me is to breed high value offspring who will go on to be kings and queens ready to do the bidding of Yeshua, the Prince of Peace in the cosmic chess game.

Culture/society expectation after marriage. I am grateful for my kids but in my next life, I'd probably adopt instead, I think

MufasaLion:


Apparently, you have kids because of societal expectations?

opeyy:


Yes, isn't that the norm in 9ja?!...after marriage everyone will be looking at your belly, and even some bold enough to ask Lol. If I had a choice without any potential pressure, I would have probably done things differently.

That is not a good way to live life. Walking on egg shells so as not to offend society and do their bidding while neglecting yours.

Screw society and their judgements

Roycemadeit:
1. For most people it's just a sort of responsibility weighed on them by society, as chiefly sponsored by religion; this I find Ironically, because your child is guaranteed a spot in hell as soon as they are born, now an almost logical but faulted by belief' person should decide to not have children that may end up roasting for an eternity...[/b]Lest I deviate.

2. Parents don't bother to ask questions, they just flow with the tide and live for the norms to bring children they do not know how to guide or raise. [b]Having said that, there is underlying selfishness to it, being that parents want to have someone they can own and control like objects asides from that, they see children as an investment for old age.

3. Now, for me, I don't think anyone should be owned, this idea is what throws our world into more chaos neither do I see children as an investment. If I have a child today, I should get the child to see everyone as her family, but the world is toxic to good people.
What is am trying to say is I haven't made up my mind to forsake my life and live a fraction of it for another, I don't have enough knowledge to raise a child nor do I have control over what tremor the world will deal me using my child.
