Is it it me or do people just have kids because they think they're like pets?

In my experience many people who have kids only regret or hold off until later, that they really didn't make the wisest of decisions at that time. Stuck raising a lil one is always emotionally/time consuming, but people just don't realize until reality hits them in the ****. These young parents don't know they're unfit, which is why America has such a ghetto fraternity culture with muh "baby-dadd/mommy" rachet type of thing. What are your thoughts on this dilemma of single parenting and having kids without actually knowing how to properly take care of them?

    Most people, regardless of their social status, have no idea how to parent when they have a first child. Kids don't come with manuals and there is no college degree a person can obtain about child rearing

    In some cases the problem isn’t the decision to have kids but rather the decision of whom to have them with that’s the issue. Child rearing can be hard on a relationship so if you’re not solid with your partner before you have kids things aren’t going to get any better after you have them.

    Young people have children because they are naive. They think they know what they are doing and they aren't fit enough to look after a child either emotionally or financially.  These young people are either just plain stupid and/or make the same mistakes their parents did or have no concept of delayed gratification.

    Kids having kids is not a new phenomenon.

    having kids and procreating is a in-built natural drive .. the paved over technologically controled system the corporations have indoctrinated people into makes having kids come with punishments .. why .. the elite types dont want so many of 'you' on their land .. more or less ..
