I am curious if the majority of leftist people don't actually want children haha. There doesn't seem to be any studies about it, but my convos with leftists is that most don't seem to want to have children either for the uncertainty of the future or because they are too expensive or because it wouldn't give them too much time to organize or whatever other reason that I forgot about.

I personally lean on not having children because I have been laid off of several jobs and having someone financially dependent to me scares the shit out of me and would put my stress levels through the roof.

I want kids but my girlfriend is unsure. I just really want to be a father and the responsibilities associated with it.

It is beautiful when your son/daughter utter the words father/mother. Mine did it yesterday
