I'm in a DINK couple (just to be clear) and one thing people often don't speak about is the negative aspect of that choice when we get older. You might do whatever you want while you're young, odds are that if you need care when you're old, your only source of help will be professional, not personal.

Let's not pretend nothing positive comes from having kids, especially not on a platform where people keep complaining about being lonely.

Heck, go volunteer in a long term care facility and tell me there no difference between the amount of care that people with and without a family receive.
