Truly though - What's more life-affirming than showing contempt for your parents' presumption to drag you from the void? It shows you've really weighed your options and decided to stay and bitch.
Adolescents and younger teens aren't really know for their introspection, I kind of give them a pass for saying that stuff at that stage in their life. At that age, lots of us learn how stupid something is only when we hear it coming out of our own mouths. It becomes really cringe though when they graduate into adulthood and they're still saying that or holding that opinion. At that point even their peers are given them the side eye or saying something like "dude, that doesn't fly anymore. Get your shit together".
Hard disagree, from a 30-something. Two horny people fucked with no protection and now I'm expected to get an education, find and hold employment, be self-sufficient, and be fucking grateful for being forced to do this shit? And all of their inabilities to parent properly, leading to near-debilitating anxiety and stress, is somehow my fault? That I should cater to the two idiots that couldn't take a pill or unwrap a damn condom, because they want a mini-me? That I should blindly follow their religious views, of - again - two people that decided that momentary pleasure was better than lifelong calm and stability, for themselves and others? Two people who want to dictate what I like, what I'm interested in, my political viewpoint, my sexual preferences...? Two idiots that decided that mixing the worst part of one's DNA with the worst part of the other is a wonderful thing to do, and the visual issues of one, the deep constant anxiety of another, the risk factors of cancer and stroke, would be a delightful thing to impose on a new being. And I should fucking be HAPPY about this?! Are you FUCKING SHITTING ME?
Sincerely, a disabled gay satanic furry - with another disabled sibling (let's do it again!) - who was raised straight and christian and then manipulated and controlled, who is already plagued with health concerns, mental health issues, and had their first stroke at 21 years old. Everybody should freely fuck, it's great!
(To say 'I wish I was never born' is such an understatement it's actually hilarious.)
Even worse: I was planned. My parents decided to do this to me.
Nobody fucking asked me when two dumbfucks in their early 20s took it upon themselves to just up and create a life. The most cruel thing you can do to a person is to bring them into this world.
