While I think the trend toward delayed parenthood is a big problem & maternal age is the best indicator for that, this is not a lady problem. I don’t even think this mess has much to do w feminism or tinder. Cultural pessimism, memes about parents + deranged norms do the trick
Man, it’s just not doable. People don’t want to be parents because being on-point at every moment is not something any human can do & nobody wants to live with a pervasive sense of failure

Ya I mean no parent wants to f*ck up. And I mean we are here (not unscathed bc daddy issues or w.e.) so like, maybe it’s not about@perfection. Though I will say I do love to remind my own parents of their short comings

To bring it back to the point though, it’s probably that the benefits of having kids end up outweighing the intensity. (Have you ever cared for@kids?)
