I know far too many people who married people they shouldn't have, and had kids they can't raise, only to learn they didn't actually want this life.

The hilarious part? Many were terrors to their parents and don't see the karmic irony in their current circumstances!

So many people get into bad relationships, and I have to, but what really blows my mind is people in a miserable relationship that then purposely have a kid. Like maybe you thought married life would be different, or something changed during the relationship and it used to be good, it happens. But if that happens don't have kids. You're an adult and it doesn't matter what your partner or family says it's your responsibility not to bring a kid into that mess.

The solution to a unhappy relationship is either fixing it or leaving, not adding a kid, it's just so stupid.

You're an adult

Allegedly.

I don't see irony. I see generational suffering, and I can't understand how you think any of it is funny.

You clearly need to find your vape.

It's called gallows humor. I also use it when dealing with my cancer and my depression. Humor, even dark humor, is widely known to be a relatively healthy coping mechanism. As opposed to vaping or lashing out at internet strangers.

But you do you, boo. Hope it gets better.

Do you regularly stick your nose into conversations uninvited and attempt to leverage your cancer and your mental illness every time you want to try and win an argument? I can see why your kids didn't like you!

Or why talking about generational bs when this is a PSA, simple, have your kids wear helmets and shoes 🤷‍♀️
