More and more places are allowing dogs but banning children.
The methodology there sounds a bit funky. Did the individual factors predict happiness too? Did you have to bunch them together to get a statistically valid affirmative? That is, did the desire for family not stand on its own?
Kids are hard work and a long-term commitment. Not an attractive proposition to a generation that has been raised to value their own “happiness” above all else and to “collect experiences.”
well, hell. let’s start electing the dogs to congress. maybe we’d get better results.
Illegals are doing a good job of popping out babies.
Mrs. Child and I tried for a second child but her health issues kept that from happening. And I darn near crippled my manhood doing my part during our attempt. When you begin to dread the next sexual encounter you know you are working pretty hard for that kid. LOL
College tuition is much lower for dogs than children, and the doggy professors don’t spew lefty propaganda!
People are murdering their babies at the altar of a woman’s convenience. What can we expect to be the result?
Oh, and Muslims don’t abort their children.
Twenty years from now . . . welcome to the Amerikan Caliphate.
Children grow up to become responsible adults, whereas dogs ....
I’m old and tired of all the barking and whimpering and peeing and crapping everywhere. And the dogs are no picnic either.
Wait.............what? They’re not counting the Migrants and their children as Americans? Somebody totally F’d up in their research, wouldn’t want to be them when the socialists get their hands on them!
SNL recently did a parody song called “My Dog Is My Boyfriend.”
It wasn’t particularly funny, but quite close to a segment of society today.
A friend’s single daughter comes to mind; she’s already letting herself go (in her 20’s) and totally obsessed with her puppy.
“Be fruitful and multiply!”
“Arf, arf arf!”
At least one species is smart enough to ‘get it’...
Great news !
Population should not keep going up.
Cycles up & down are normal.
Me ? 3 kids. No pets
Then there are cats.
Even if the discrepancy of children and pets didnt exist, America has a pet ownership problem. It seems almost everybody thinks they need to ‘own’ a pet or three. It’s like it satisfies some human need to control and dominate other living beings. It’s truly a master & slave relationship particularly with dogs. Cat owners I’m sure will say it’s the other way around.
