Let's see who will pay for your retirement and medical care eventually... (unless if you live in that US hellscape ofcourse)

If that's all you're having kids for please do not have kids.

Oh yeah, one hundred percent. The only reason I got kids was to make sure they can take care of my retirement.

Just as I'm taking care of my parents. I have totally absolutely 100% not broken off all contact with them because of their shitty behaviour. No sir, absolutely not.

Had me in the first half, not gonna lie.

If you're having kids with the express intent that they care for you when you're old, you're already doing it wrong.
