...BUT we clearly arent blaming parents .

We are blaming the billionairss and politicians who have structured our modern work hours and modern economies. Wot are you on about? Did I miss something?

    Was a great saying when it was only used in reference to fighting literal wars.

    These days it reeks of class reductionism and anti-intersectionality.

    That is not the tone of like half the comments I'm seeing, just in this post. A lot of "snarky" backbiting towards people speaking up for parenting needs. "You chose to be a parent, so why should you get special accomodations for that?"-type of attitudes.

    and the funny thing about snarky comments like that is that there are A LOOOOT of people on the planet who literally dont have any other option but to become a parent.

    Sterilizations, birth controls, protections from S Assaults, abortions are not universally available worldwide . ALSO there's a stupidly high number lf cultures that persecute and prosecute a childfree person soo....

    On another note, why cant we live in a world where such things ARE universally available to any adult who asks for them? And one where a person is not given the death penalty for simply choosing to remain childfree?
