I gotta say, I’ve been hearing all about this “Nobody is having kids” thing but god damn if my street is not swarming with strollers.
What gets me is all the folks up in Austin, TX pulling the copper wiring out of the walls of every school district inside a city center. Then you’ve got the Feds in Congress threatening to pull the plug on Medicaid, which covers half of all childbirths in the state. And on top of that, we’re staring down the barrel of a Measles epidemic.
Gen Alpha’s getting dealt the worst hand since kids born during the Great Depression.
As is tradition, the young will bear the brunt of the damage being done, they have the weakest immune systems, they’re more vulnerable, they deserve and need to be protected and we’re failing them still. I know my childhood was not good and I am still working through it but at least I got to have a childhood. I feel very much sorrow for what the children are going through, especially the sensitive and/or marginalized children.
Same, I’m seeing strollers everywhere too. I think our generation had a 10-15 year delay compared to the last that got everyone all worried, but worry not, the babys are in full swing…
