The sad reality is that a lot of people evade parenting by spending way too much time at their work. To some extent using work as an excuse to spend less time educating and spending times with kids.
So you either get the social stigma of not willing to have kids, or you do get some kids and actually don’t want to spend time with them ?
Obviously, some parents find the right balance between the two and actually care about the kids enough to keep work in check but I’m starting to think that’s more an exception than the norm.
Sorry if this is rough to read or offensive. As I said, I work 39h a week and most of the higher ups at work do 41/42+ hours a week easy. It’s obvious than they choose work before education. There is a point where it’s just physically impossible to be there for your kids while spending that much time work. Don’t even get me started on these higher ups spending so much time working even when they do get home.
This is a really assuming comment, lol. Are there people like that? Absolutely. Is it the norm? Highly doubtful. Without some hard data, can’t really say one way or another, I suppose.
