Do you have friends with kids?
For those who do and have stayed friends over time, obviously you guys like each other and get along famously.
How do you reconcile your antinatalist view with their non-antinatalistic ones?
What are your friends like? Are they open minded? Balanced? Self conscious and consistent? Most people who give birth because of traditions, and/or bound by religion. Essentially they don’t know what to do with their life, and/or for fear of dying alone, meanwhile not having awareness of any of it. I believe people who procreate because they are allaround and happy are rare. I haven’t met anyone like that thus far.
I’d be interested in hearing your experiences with friends who have kids. Whether or not the relationship has run its course.
