Controversial opinion
Do u guys have any controversial opinion(s)? If so, please share it.
My controversial opinion is that u can't ever have kids(by birthing or adopting) if ur not stable financially. No, I don't mean that u have to be rich, but u have enough to feed them 3 times a day, have shelter, provide any medical needs(like checkups with the dentist, u don't know how bad teeth can literally fk u up so bad), fun activities(such as school trips. I've seen wayyy to many of my peers feeling so embarrassed not being able to go somewhere because they can't afford to spend 5 dollars), and necessities such as clothes, shoes, and any school supplies.
AND anyone who wants to be a parent should be investigated. Do they have any mental illness?? Health issues? Debts?? (And more.)

Sad truth but if that was the standard to have kids, we would have a quickly declining birth rate (at least in America). With wage disparities growing and cost of living increasing rapidly, most people cant afford kids in the way you’re saying they need to (without going into debt). But I do agree that growing up in poverty can be traumatic for c...... 1 reply
