The last one can be brutal. It's tough to maintain friendships with people who don't have kids, it's doubly tough to form friendships with new people who have kids. Although it's mildly easier to build acquaintances.
- D13Fd 2y agoThis is so true. It's socially isolating. We don't have the support structures we had even back when I was a kid, let alone 20 or 40 years before that, when society was really built around families having kids. I can only wonder what it will be like in another 20 years, when my children are grown up.
- mlinhares 2y agoWhile unfortunate we were able to make friends with other people with kids so there's some sharing of responsibility (send receive kids at home when they need to be watched over) but this doesn't seem to be the norm here. Feels like most people are raising their kids by themselves.
- kilolima 2y agoBecause people with kids won't stop talking about how wonderful their kids are.
