My contribution to the ongoing “being a parent today is selfish” conversation— It’s equally (if not more selfish) to be childfree, but unwilling to be a member of your community. My friend’s, neighbors, and sibling’s kids are MY responsibility too.

I feel like I hear more of “not having a child is selfish” from that you’re just living for yourself then bs prospective, but also I’m sure this exists too

It’s been a whole social media moment for a couple of months, and has had a resurgence this week.

I guess my algorithm didn’t think I’d like it or something bc I’ll admit I’m pretty chronically online and don’t see that

The one thing I miss about my old job was getting to interact with people all day and know I was helping them and getting to know them. I still get to do that to a smaller degree, but not with the whole community I’m in. But at least there are still plenty of things I can do :)
