I am so fucking tired of seeing people comment how "you shouldn't have kids if you can't afford them" as if life is that fucking clean and simple.
Like yes ideally people should be able to support their kids, but life isn't that easy.

Comments like this ignore so many factors.
How people could end up being single parents, either through loss, or having to make a decision between safety and financial stability, or through simply being left.

People who have a stable job one day might not have it the next, or maybe the cost of living has outstripped a families wages, and what the parents earn no longer go as far as they once did, and can no longer provide what it once did.
The there is the fact accidents can happen, not everyone wants to terminate or give up an unexpected pregnancy/child, and decide to make the best of it that they can. There is a child on the way and they WANT to love and care for that child.
People can become disabled unexpectedly, lose their job, and I haven't even touched on children who are unfortunately the result of a rape.
Not everyone wants to give those children up.
Or what about people who plan for one child, but suddenly they have a multi-birth?

I don't know how to explain to these "Only have children if you can afford them" people, that there are so many factors you might not know about in someone's life, and it is NOT your place to judge.
I don't know how to tell you, you should CARE about people and starving kids.

You can't return a child to whence they came if you are suddenly struggling to support your family!
And whether someone could or couldn't afford to have children, now those children are here you want to punish them and let them starve?
Get fucked.
