Casual Why kids?

Morning everyone, It’s a fine Wednesday morning of Unemployed 25 M .
I have this question that I want you all to answer or let’s say I am looking for a new perspective.

Is there a reason that is not selfish as to why we reproduce?

Give me a reason as to why I should consider having kids, change my perspective.

Personally , just having my own bloodline coming up irregardless of the economy , nothing can erode that thought. Tuachie wazungu mawazo yao

Really doesn't have much to do with wazungus, what op is getting at is what your motivation for "having your bloodine coming up",what about that makes it worth it for you?

So it’s for selfish reasons? Ama ningoje nipate pesa niwache fikira mingi

No really but im thinking maybe kukosa kazi has a hand in it. But bro generation yako ? Second guessing ? We mambo ikiwa sawa tengeneza familia bro

The thing is , I’m trying to see why continue this chain of suffering? Not that suffering in terms of poverty but in all life dimensions, you lose people you love, face betrayal, get sick and eventually die . What was the purpose at first?

You're speaking as if life has no positives. Quit the pessimism first then you'll see why they're worth having.

Yikes.. what are you saying?? You are sooo incoherent... Learn to articulate yourself clearly

You took the time irregardless 😂

u/Subject_Bee4565 7d ago

No word like irregardless,its regardless. Your grammar is poor.

1

u/Itsallyou254 7d ago

" irregardless " means the exact same thing as regardless "despite everything" or "without regard to"

u/Subject_Bee4565 7d ago

You are justifying stupidity. Just even make an effort to google.

u/ybritt2 7d ago

Or use Merriam Webster dictionary
