Hi everyone!

Hope you're all having a wonderful week! There will not be a video on my main channel this week because we're super busy working on a couple of big ones - coming soon :)

Instead, I want to share this early preview with you, for a video that's going live tomorrow on my second channel - Unplugged. It's a more conversational, casual take on the subject of choosing not to have children. 

I will also be sharing a Life Update video with you all on Saturday - so much is changing and I figured I'd fill you in on the action :)

Stay wild,

Eva

The HONEST Reason Why I Don't Want Children

Comments

Kids aren't for everyone. There's plenty of people having kids anyway. If there's people that can't medically have kids, and they contribute and have a good life you can choose that path. You mentioned environment and death? There's two books, Abundance: The Future is Better Than You Think by Peter Diamandis and Steven Kotler and The book called The Singularity Is Near by Ray Kurzweil. There's a chance the environment can be fixed and consumerism can be fixed and that we can live forever, at least some of us can. They're available as Ebooks and there's a movement called transhumanism that embodies this. Look at Japan and China, they need robots to take care of their elderly. I'm lds, a Mormon and we're all about the "families are forever" stuff and I want that for myself, but I also want science, tech, for people to be happy. 🖖I sometimes don't want kids but I'll see. I'm old, I'm 52... Btw I hope no one gets mad but I used to joke that wanting to have kids is having "baby rabies" and I actually said this to a couple at a wedding, and mind you I have a brain injury which affects judgement but I said "my condolences." 😂

I am right there with you. There was a time when I thought that I wanted kids; however, now that I am older, I do not. I love my life and there are so many goals and things I want to do, that kids just do not fit into that anymore. I love being an uncle, hell the house i bought was so that my sister and her family could come visit. That is the type of change i made as an uncle i cannot fathom what changes i would make for one of my own. Keep living your best life and do those things that make you happy.
