> Let me start off by asking if either yourself or GP have kids of your own, and just mention for a short moment, talking about how hypocritical parents are, while judging them while not having kids of your own, well... I am well aware of how much effort it takes to raise a kid and I wish I hadn't existed myself because I don't see why my parents would think it was a wise decision. You don't need to have kids to understand that...that would be stupid. Your other statements are too broad to answer correctly. There is not enough data, only anecdotes. So I would rather not. Need more funds to put into research on parenting and stats related to parents. What is to prove that parents are not spending their time on useless things? Do you have stats backing that they are efficiently using their time because I couldn't find for either? Only that their social media usage is approximately 20% of their working day but that is not useful. Millennial parents are in bigger debt than the older generation and it's from credit cards but how is that useful considering Millennials had less chance of earning more than their parents? Millennial spending on temporary experiences is way more even when they are jobless but is that a systematic problem resulting from depression/other mental health problems? Was the previous generation better? Maybe not. Did they do a better job at parenting? I don't know. There is no valid statistical data. Millennials leech off from their parents more, are more dependent so maybe they did do poor job at parenting or the economy is more fucked. > Can this system be optimised? Sure. But who has time? Certainly not the parents Why does it need to be parents? You start putting in effort to get into college as soon as you hit middle school...why not start putting in effort to change the system as soon as you hit an age where you realise you want kids? Even if you don't, what's the problem with wanting everyone else's kids to live better? Does everyone in the world not have enough time now?
