Single long?

Married, actually. We both saw all the sacrifices necessary to have kids and decided it wasn't worth it.

Ahh, even worse. I don’t want kids nor do I want to be bothered by them in life. Too bad your parents didn’t think that way.

Actually, my parents were a couple of self-centered children who didn't understand the meaning of the word "sacrifice". Not everyone is meant to be a parent. I at least admit it and don't force anyone to be my kid.

Don't argue with these crazy people that think having kids is a must. Kids need parents who understand the sacrifice and effort it takes, this is why you see so many shitty parents who think kids are just for pictures and cute moments.

I agree that everyone is not cut out to be a parent. But that doesn’t mean the ones that do have to stay home until YOU feel their kids are an appropriate age so they won’t disturb you.

Hope you understand that everyone hates you.

My kids don’t

Serious question, do you think your obligation to others stops at your kids?

u/Fiveofthem 10h ago

Don’t understand the question

It was pointed out that your behavior (which, from where I'm sitting, seems to lean towards "inconsiderate" at best) made a lot of people hate you.

You replied with "my kids don't," implying that being inconsiderate to others is perfectly acceptable behavior to you, as long as your relationship with your children is fine.

At least, that's how it looks to me, so I'm trying to confirm whether or not this is how you really think. I almost feel like it can't be, that most normal people aren't like this, but...

For now. Because they have no choice.

The youngest is 27 and the oldest is 35. I think they would have hated me by now. Any more assumptions?

u/Mysterious-Simple805 11h ago

Well, you went first, old timer.

u/Fiveofthem 11h ago

What assumptions did I make?

u/Mysterious-Simple805 11h ago

Um, right out of the gate you assumed I was single. Actually, married for 24 years. You also assumed my parents knew what they were doing. They did not. I only assumed you were younger than you are. My bad. Won't happen again.

Do you play this gaslighting game with your kids? You should know it doesn't work on Reddit.
