give three reasons why young people may not want to become parents?

Answer 1

1. The financial responsibility

2. The time and energy that toddlers demand

3. Having a child takes away a whole lot of one's freedom. Young people need their freedom to go out and do whatever they want. . .whenever.

Answer 2

1. ) Money. Children are expensive in several ways. Children need to eat and be clothed. They need toys with which to explore the world. They need health care, they need education, they need activities and hobbies. The proper raising of a child is not cheap.

2.) Lost freedom. People without children can easily pack up and move. They can be without work or change careers. They can break up with their partners and find new ones. Children must be accounted for in all major life changes. In fact, they demand that the world not change around them so fast while their own understanding of the world grows and changes at the same time. Stability and routine allows a child to explore life from a vantage of safety and consistency. You must be willing to give your child such stability at the cost of your own freedom.

3.) Responsibility. All of life's prior responsibilities pale in comparison. If you decide to have a child, that new person must absolutely be your top priority.
