A woman's perspective on childbearing has ignited a heated discussion on social media after she shared her reasons for not wanting children. In a TikTok video posted on May 24, the user @anjeliquej explained that her fear of raising children incorrectly outweighs her fear of raising them alone.
Two Main Reasons
The lady listed two primary reasons for her decision. First, she expressed concern that the child could turn out to be a boy. Second, she noted that even if parents do everything right, children can still choose to become degenerates. She wrote: "Doing it alone doesn't scare me as much as doing it wrong. 1. It could turn out to be a boy. 2. You can do everything right raising them & they can still choose to become degenerates."
