In my country, it is pretty common for parents to have kids then think that their kids are their hope. That is because they get kids without being financially ready for it yet and then they just eventually hope that when their kids grow up they will be the ones to build wealth for them. But is having kids the reason why people end up financially worse over the years? Do not get me wrong, kids are a blessing but realistically speaking they are expensive. Is it fair to yourselves and to the kids to have kids just to leave it up to them to be wealthy and let them grow up through hardships?
What a situation of most of our countrymen. And even in my relatives, they have this thinking which is wrong. We have to be fair to our kids and if we can't provide a good life to them, we shouldn't have one. I know that it's a blessing from above but they're doing it recklessly. They're having fun without thinking what they're setting if the fruit comes out of their love making. It's unfair to the kids that the parents will hope for them to lift them up. But I still acknowledge the parents who can sacrifice for the better living of their kids not because they are the parents but, because they've chosen that and they're responsible for doing it. No other people will sacrifice for their kids but only their parents.
