There are already too many people suffering on this planet. We sure don't need any more.

I'm sorry, but that is absurd and stupid. There are about 7 billion people on the planet now. I'm pretty sure in order for the species to survive some people are going to need to be child-free.

Don't you watch nature? When a parasite multiplies without stopping, both the host and parasite dies.

Yes, humanity is a parasitic organism on the Earth. We are a virus. We consume all natural resources, then spread and multiply.

I"m 47 years old. To have my goal be a guy with no kids would be shooting myself in the foot. I can't even find anyone as it is, with barely any dealbreakers!!

My present life situation causes it to be irresponsible, and makes me feel that I would not be a good father, because there have been so many negative experiences and not enough positive ones.

If I were in a better financial situation though, and someone needed help with their kids, I would help them.
There are too many people on this planet already. People need to ease up on having kids.

My ex-husband has three kids from his first marriage. I would have been open to a guy with kids again, however there were a lot of criteria that would have had to have been met, based on my first experience, to consider it.

My husband has no kids and I do admit that I enjoy our freedom immensely.

You know that it is not the human population, but the way we use resources, that causes problems, right?

For example, in the future all transportation, energy production and industry will be zero emission.

Also more people will live on Mars and various small bodies in the solar system than on Earth.

Like I said, an evil philosophy. Life is rare and beautiful, and intelligent life even more so. Life and intelligent life need to be protected and perpetuated.

Of course, the evil "ChildFree Philosophy" is off topic; if people want to promote that they should do it in the philosophy forum.

Actually, both contribute. Still, we are in absolutely no danger of an underpopulation crisis.

I don't have kids and would prefer a man without kids, but it would not be a dealbreaker if he had other qualities that I wanted.

Your philosophy is evil, as it creates a wider net of undue suffering.
