Omg literally a shower thought

I think the part these points miss is that a lot of kids don’t have good or involved parents, and they shouldn’t have to suffer disproportionately because of it
Me too; I prefer Lemmy now but I’ve gone to specific subs on Reddit when I didn’t know where else to find certain info and I’ve noticed a serious reduction in both quantity and quality of posts. I kept wondering if it was in my head but it’s so many different subs I think it must be the case. Good riddance!
That’s a great insight for you to have! It’s easier to address a struggle if you can identify the root of it ❤️ Also many of us can empathize with being treated that way as children.
I imagine this is related to their shrinking population and not having enough young people to fill the jobs?
I love this question.
Also it makes me so angry when serial killers still try to deny their murders years after the fact. The only thing worse than a killer is a lying killer.
Oh no just me!! 😂 My siblings just didn’t want kids for over a decade and suddenly changed their minds 🤪 It does leave me with mixed feelings as the person replying said, they’re a little hard to explain to someone who hasn’t been through it
No matter what your problems are I assure you they aren’t insignificant or stupid ❤️
Sometimes it can help to talk about it even if solutions aren’t found! But that’s your choice either way obviously 💕
Mostly okay! I’ve been through a decade of infertility in the past and both of my (historically) happily childfree siblings announced they want kids now. I’ve experienced every emotion I can name about that but I’ve also had some good chats with other loved ones about it!
Seems a bit trivial compared to what some other people are going through but it took me by surprise.
I saw that joke coming when I wrote it but was too lazy to rephrase 🤣
Lol have a Lemmy Silver! 🥈
Find my way places (even nearby places) without GPS!
Oat milk and nutritional yeast. And he barely shows interest in any other food we eat; not meat, not even wet cat food.
We’re flabbergasted!
Really not worth it in my opinion. I’m hoping some day it will be, kind of like how robot vacuums used to ha e a lot more problems and be a lot more expensive.
We couldn’t afford any of the robot litter boxes for starters, even if we could manage the huge upfront cost (compared to the cost of even a high quality regular litter box), they all have some type of additional ongoing cost. Bags, or filters, or replacement parts, or more expensive litter.
Second, every one I looked at had reviews about cleanliness not being completely covered by the machine, so you sometimes have to clean a lot more parts than just quickly rinsing a typical litter box. Some people’s cats also get dirtier, or struggle to aim in some robot ones.
Third, I find the smell worse with any that you don’t dump or replace the tray every day. Using a diaper Genie honestly works much better for that for us. And I would rather know that I only need to take the 30 seconds to scoop every day as opposed to suddenly waking up to a broken litter box or having to spend an hour plus cleaning every part of it.
Lots of different opinions on here which is great, this is just my take!
Man that’s a really important piece of information, it should be in the article title. The greediest companies are not the tax payer funded ones
This one honestly got me at first 😆
I would do anything to have been able to save them… I am anti war, anti genocide, pro universal healthcare; pro-life shouldn’t just refer to one issue and it’s awful that the rhetoric has gone that way
I thought I was the only person who felt that way! It makes me so angry when people with spouses and kids or even parents who love them do hyper dangerous sports. Like surely there has to be something more worth doing that doesn’t orphan your children??
(Obviously any sport has some risk as do things like driving, I’m referring to things like free diving or free climbing where there’s no way to have a real safety net)
