You do if you have nothing to feel happy or successful about.

People really misunderstood this comment. Yikes.

Children aren't and shouldn't be responsible for making their parents happy.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 5 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

That was my point. People with nothing to be happy about often use their children as substitutes.

[–] sneakypersimmon@lemmy.today -3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

Oh, you're simply shitting on parents because they decided to become parents. Got it.

[–] village604@adultswim.fan 1 points 20 minutes ago (1 children)

No, I'm shitting on parents who had kids because they thought the kids would fix their problems.
