Do You Feel Guilty About Being Pregnant??

Question

Knowing that the world is already overpopulated, resources are strained, the earth is overpolluted, the climate is changing due to too many people on earth etc.

And here you are adding to the problem...

Does it make you feel bad? Ignorant? Guilty?

To carpediem:

Yes, my birth added to the problem, BUT my mother only had one child. Also, when she had me, there were "only" 3 billion people on earth. Only 25 years ago.

Today, there are 6.5 billion.

And if you don't believe that climate change is due to human activities, you're a fool. Real scientists know that it is due to humans.

The oceans are already at the brink of depletion.

Ever wonder why seafood, which used to be cheap 15 years ago, is so expensive now?

To what a sweet heart:

LOL!! It's actually the other way around. Thinking, educated people are not having children, and the low life trash reproduces like rats. But go ahead.... keep kidding yourself.

Answer 1

Being pregnant is nothing to feel guilty about. Women usually have only one baby at a time at a rate of no more than one a year. One man can impregnate dozens of women and abandon them and his children to a life of poverty and crime. If you want someone to feel guilty you are looking at the wrong people. Talk to the men you know who can't keep their pants zipped and then don't pay child support or even know who their kids are.

Answer 2

Do You Feel Guilty About Being an Idiot?
Knowing that the world could use less dummies, the earth is unnecessarily overpopulated with geeks and losers that find excitement by coming on internet sites like YahooAnswers and asking and making stupid @ss comments...

And here you are adding to the problem...

Does it make you feel bad? More ignorant? Guilty?

..stop feeling bad because you can't get some! HAHAHA!

Answer 3

Did you ever think your mother only had one child because she was selfish or maybe it was because she saw what a dumba** her genes could produce. Only thing that makes me feel bad is knowing that people like you are out in this world and that you are so jealous of everyone else's happiness so you have to pick on mothers-to-be. LMAO Maybe if you could find someone willing to tolerate your ignorance and reproduce with you then you wouldnt feel the need to ask such dumb questions. As for guilty never felt that over bringing a miracle into the world.

Answer 4

Does it make you feel bad, ignorant, or guilty to come off as judgemental and one-sided?

There are lots of reasons people pro-create - whether it be personal, religious, or whatever. I'm glad I have a choice and that my right to reproduce is protected by the country I live in and that I don't have to explain my reasons to anyone.

I wonder if your mother felt bad before she had you? Do you wish she hadn't since the world is overpopulated and polluted? Did your birth add to the problem?

~~In response to your note to me~~
I never denied global warming - I just think that your opinion on the topic is askew. Have you taken into consideration death rates, new environmental laws, changes in policy regarding pollution and waste management, all the technology that we have now that we didn't have 25 years ago? I didn't think so....

Instead of complaining about how many babies are born, maybe you should focus your efforts on complaining about cleaner fuel, hybrid cars, renewable energy, and other things that are plausible to change.

Besides - how do you know that the future generation isn't going to be the one to figure out how to effectively reduce pollution? Maybe the next "Einstein" has yet to be born. Seems to me that putting a stop to procreating would be shooting ourselves in the foot.

And who are you to judge?

Answer 5

Just so you know, the VAST majority of overpopulation of our planet is in third world countries. The U.S is one of the SMALLEST contributors to overpopulation. If you're really concerned about global warming then you should be more concerned about the car you drive, and the amount of energy you use.

You should do more research before you open your mouth next time. You sound like a complete moron.

Answer 6

no. we have to reproduce, that's what we're made to do. we should not consume as much as we do and should better educate ourselves on the implications of our actions. but in the west, our population rates are barely increasing and in some areas are negative. it is not possible for everyone that wants a child to adopt an unwanted one from an overpopulated nation nor is it a good idea to allow our population growth to stagnate.

Answer 7

This is why most women walk around saying men are a waste of space. I think maybe if we had less people like you it would solve a lot of those issues you rant about. It's not us having babies, it's people that don't realize that they are already a part of the problem that should feel bad. *looks in your direction* That's all I had to say. =0) Best Wishes.

Answer 8

Hell no! The government in my country is paying mothers to have babies! I would only feel guilty if I was doing it for the money....

Me thinks you need to take a look at yourself and why you are asking such a stupid and ill informed question!

Answer 9

No, I don't feel guilty for wanting children. I would adopt if it wasn't a long expensive process!

The ones who are selfish and should feel guilty are the ones that take the easy out with abortions.

Answer 10

no it makes me want to have more babies. the world is the way it is because of ignorant people already here on Earth. for all u know the next generation will better the world.
