Crybabies are probably better off not having babies of their own.

Folks who wanna be childless should just shut up and be childless. Likewise, folks who think it's important to procreate should just shut up and procreate themselves.

True, very true, but shutting up doesn't get them their 15 minutes of fame.

What disturbs me about this movement is that they are trying to further devalue parenthood and children. They want to suck away resources for their own selfish selves and basically “steal candy” from babies. It also disturbs me that the guy in the middle of the article said he would acknowledge dogs but would ignore baby strollers. It’s a deliberate and hateful distinction.

I’ve decided to not ever have children but for totally different reasons. I don’t not want to bring a child into a world with people like these.

First, welcome to FR. The shots aimed at you were out and out mean, and you should be commended for having the guts to defend yourself. And Possum is right in that you are fine looking.

OTOH, when someone is making podcasts ending with "Keep from breeding!" as the article reports, that's not a leave us alone statement. In fact, that's a perverse and destructive statement and issue should be taken with it.

With regard to the cat, I was tempted to post something snarky about it until you explained about the media manipulation, in which case you have my sincere sympathy.

I respect anyone who makes the decision not to procreate. Looking at the sad state of affairs these days I’d say there are many more who should not procreate but do.

People like this aren’t all that rare these days. Good for her!

We’re proud we’re not filthy breeders.

Besides, when we all get old and feeble, we’ll have YOUR children to support us. Isn’t liberalism grand?

Bloody selfish scum...

Well - at least their parents didn’t have the same attitude - obviously.

Thanks for coming on “Crazy Cat Lady” ;-) Hope you stick around!

(I posted that I respect your choice)

And for the record...the real crazy cat ladies have at least six times the number of cats you have, so I’m not sure you can claim the title!

If she’s been back since March of `07, she’s only been lurking.
