I went to the Emergency Room at Tampa General Hospital last week at the direction of my primary care physician after she examined me. They admitted me and kept me there for 2 days. They ran all the same tests that Doctor’s Hospital in Sarasota ran. The one test that probably would have solved everything, which was recommended by my primary care physician, that I asked the doctors about several times to please perform on me, they did not perform it, though for whatever reason. That test was a lumbar puncture. It is not at all likely to be meningitis, but that test would of revealed a lot of other very helpful information. So they discharged me, and I still have no answers at all.
What I want to talk about today is the feeling that we all have about planning to have children. It is human instinct to reproduce; it is the basic job of all human beings to reproduce. Humans have that pre-programmed in our DNA. The problem with that is this: IT IS NOT THE SAME WORLD AS IT WAS WHEN WE WERE CHILDREN. The thing about children is that it is very hard to have them and raise them as it is. Now, though, the world is a very different place and that is definitely something you need to consider in your life plans. When you have a child, you are creating something that you are going to deeply care for. The only thing I can compare it to is a parent that you love dearly or a pet that you deeply care for. With that said, you have to think very hard about the future life of yourself and the child that you are going to deeply care for. Put that love and energy into your parents if they are still alive, or that pet that you care about, or that person in your life that you care about most. Having a child today is just not something anyone should plan to do. Knowing what I know now, having planned for and completed raising a child, I do not know how I even did it, I would definitely not do it now, knowing what I know.
Here are some links to content I created and posted online so far this week. More links to come next week. These videos are all unrelated to the subject of children.
The hardest thing a human will ever do in their life is give birth to and raise another human! The current government owned child support system makes that job even harder for parents. Because it is in their (government) financial interest to seek out parental shortcomings.
