The stress these kids are under nowadays are exponentially higher than when we were growing up. Like in my high school if you had that base model celica you were a GOD amongst men. The standards are all so far out of whack that I’m really not sure how their egos dont shatter into a million pieces.
P.s in before you guys tell me to get back to Vancouver and fix this strike problem. I didn’t do it !!!

At the same time that things have gotten increasingly hard for kids, I also think parents have become a lot more conscious and intentional about parenthood.
Take a look at the Parental Thread and compare any random post from the RS dads, to how our folks raised us. I mean back in the day, the bar was just to make sure you were fed, and beat you every once in a while.
I think you especially, would make a great dad. If you decide it's right for you. And it won't even be a question of "ship has sailed". We have the technology. There's IVF, surrogacy, adoption.
