Honest take

That’s a sad view on life!

For me, that more depends on who the announcements are from 😬

I want another so bad but the stress of all that’s going on and the anxiety of having an under one year old when measles was popping off about put me in a hospital 😭

Was it only acceptable to have kids when you had yours then? 😭

You sound judgmental and unhappy

So hear me out. You sound depressed regarding the current state of the world. Which in high conflict hateful time is understandable. Something to keep in mind is the world will never have a time of entire peace. Utopias are fiction. As living beings we are constantly changing, it is up to us to maintain hope. Hope is what pushes change in an upward motion. Someone who is able to hold both the reality of the world today while also the desire for a child may be exercising their hope for humanity.

It’s totally okay to feel uncertain about having more, not okay to judge others for choosing to have more - which is exactly what you’re doing. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I think the world has always been shitty at some point. Yet we kept having babies and that's good. That means we look at the future with hope. I have hope even if things are not easy and the world is scary. It's ok to feel sad about it but it's not to settle for it.

I get where you're coming from and I think it makes sense that you don't want to have more kids. At the same time, I feel like the world has always had its issues so I can understand why others (myself included) are still expanding their families.

You mentioned the U.S. specifically, are you worried about the political climate here? Im not judging just curious and think this is a really good topic in general
