I personally cringe when I hear a friend js having a kid. All I can think of is how bad theyre going to have it. Hell id definitely have been better off being born 20 years earlier, but these new kids are REALLY screwed unless they have super rich parents.

“Nothing new under the sun” I suppose!

    I was born over 40 years ago. I feel like there was a general consensus in the 80’s that kids being born then absolutely would be “better off” than their parents.

    Reality is sinking in and we’re seeing that wasn’t the case for a lot of people.

    The fact that questionability surrounding “if kids born today will be better off than their parents” even exists today seems to suggest that they will not.
