I can understand people who don't personally want to have children. I can't understand people who have contempt for children, and (typically) contempt for the human legacy they make salient. It's a scary thing when a person's self-loathing is too big to fit their own skin alone

I think a lot of the clearly terrible stuff that happens in classrooms — blatant favoritism, adults all but calling little kids "stupid," perfectly normal boys being made to internalize a sense of irredeemable criminality — can be attributed to prison guard coping mechanisms
An idea emerging from the unholy alliance between modern political wackiness & the mental health establishment is that kids unavoidably make everyone around them less happy, and that any perceived sense of meaning in parenting is a psychological defense mechanismpic.twitter.com/7jGh3my2fJ

Not emerging but developing. Conceived in the mid-to-late 1800's and is now in full swing. Eugenicists backed by corporators developed the "science & profession of motherhood." It's always been about creating a larger workforce & "expert" classes.pic.twitter.com/mhfdsooJjh

There's the appeal to expert class and mental health professionals fallacy. "Just follow Froebel and the other eugenicists," they said. "The world will be a better place," they said. Funny how a century later the individual is all but null & void whilst the corporations reign.pic.twitter.com/bv9y383riV
