Who would want to bring a baby into this world ? Saddling this child w/ debt as far into the future as can be seen, this person exits the womb into a society where the parent is losing control over education, religion and decisions of basic right or wrong are made by 9 men or women in robes who are not elected? Not every-ones decision to not have children are “me” based. Responsible people have made decisions not to bring life into this world because of the direction it is headed.

Now that you mention it; wouldn’t that be a De Facto application of involuntary servitude, which is prohibited by the Constitution?

Those of us who are childless through no fault of our own despise your world-view.

Just sayin'.

I agree with you on this matter. I claim no great powers of insight but at age 18 (1958), based solely on personal experiences I had concluded that I would never subject any innocent soul to what I had experienced and I decided to never become a parent. And I never changed my mind.

The direction of our country today just reinforces that conclusion reached 53 years ago.

This is vain self-deceit.
