    No one should procreate and humanity should go extinct and our children should not be properly cared for because El Presidente doesn't get a vacation too. And we are selfish.

    every living thing on earth is hard wired to do one thing above all others, often times at its own peril.

    procreate.

    this isnt some sort of new revelation bruh.

    Lots of reasons. I myself did not plan my son but once I found out he was on his way I was overjoyed. We could have chose abortion. But why would we do that? Especially when there are so many piece of shit, selfish people in this world. We understood that we need to raise one that's going to be completely opposite of that. We need to raise one who was going to do things differently than humans are doing them now. He's going to think critically and forward. He will be a steward of this planet. I always tell him that his generation is going to fix the problems that my parents generation caused and my generation will be the one to teach him.

    When he was 5 (5 fucking years old!!) he asked me:

    Papa, how can I change the world?

    I'm raising a president bro. Straight up. I realize that I have a responsibility to my planet to not contribute to overpopulation and to teach my child to not let this muthafucka turn into the Earth featured in Wal-E.

    Biologically, yes. But humans are more advanced and have different desires for procreation.

    People have children to have miniature versions of themselves. The children are there for company and companionship, to fill a void in one's life, to make a family "whole" in the traditional sense. Parents have children to command authority over someone, to have someone who looks up to them and admires them. Often times, parents relish the achievements of their children, and in turn, the successes of the child is often the successes of the parent. Parents often show off their children, compare them to their friends as if they were commodities.

    And Newsflash:

    I don't know about you, but I work to live I don't live to work. My job is how I support my family. That is the main reason why people are employed. Not to make our country run but to take care of our families.

    Says the person who has no kids? How do you know why people have kids when you don't have any? Do you understand how silly you sound?

    Frankly, yes. I think people that are accepting of others are better than those who are not. You don't accept the fact that parents have children and we need to take care of them. Your stance on this is frankly very very silly.

    I work to live as well, but this maternity/paternity leave is an injustice to those who do not get, what amounts to a 10% bonus for something that is non-performance related. Like I said earlier, if someone gets time off, someone else has to work harder to cover them.

    Actually its very logical, while yours is based in emotion. Parents having children should not mean that they should be able to work less in their job and get paid for it.

    You sure think negatively bro.. There are always two ways to think of things that come before you. Some people always use the negative way to think about it. If you found, with your reasoning, that you felt I was talking about you then I think that's weird.

    So hire a temp and pay the original worker just because they choose to have a child, which is totally unrelated to their job. Sounds like a winning idea.

    Jobs are to make money for the company. The bottom line.
