The older I get the less I understand how people are able to even get to a position where they're able to have kids comfortably. I feel like my life is just a constant mess of putting out one fire after another, not the mention the state of the greater world
This is great preparation for having children.
And very likely not something I will put into practice haha
Needing to be responsible for a child would be too much for me, I would not be able to cope. I already get routinely overwhelmed and burnt out
You will never "be ready". Even if you think you are - you have no idea what awaits you.
Every aspect of your life will change all the way down to your core values.
You seem to be nailing responsibility though. Good on you for having that awareness.
