What title says,
unless one is well off himself one should not be having kids, this is my opinion.
What about you?
I believe in God, and God said, “go forth and multiply,” so for me it’s just right to have kids.
Having children brings a different kind of happiness. It’s not just about yourself anymore, you become more selfless, you work harder, and you learn to be more responsible because you want to provide and prepare a future for them.
And honestly, we all owe it to our parents too. They chose to have kids, and that’s why we’re even here in this world. Same with you, you’re only here because your parents believed in having children.
