Why I hate your children.
I hate children, particularly your children. You do not have children for reasons that are reasonable nor redeemable in any way. Humans are a virus, and pro creating is simply spreading this plague upon the earth.
In our society children are created with the intention of being status symbols, affirmations of relationships, an abstract solution to fill a emotional void, or simply accidents. The Jones just had a child, so you must have one as well, or perhaps people will think that you are weird, or sterile, or maybe they will think that you just hate children. Whatever the case may be, you best be getting copulating, or else your status in your all important socialite existence will be irreparably damaged. Or, perhaps your relationship with your spouse hasn't been going so well lately. Bad sex, no sex, suspicion, repetition, lack of emotional relations; whatever the case may be, pounding out an 8 pound bag of flesh from your uterus will surely patch things up. Perhaps you feel like something is missing in your life. Something is lacking in your day to day routine, and you feel that your two thousand dollar pure bred schnouser isn't enough burden on your schedule- a screaming, pissing, feces spewing pet human will certainly make you feel complete. Or, perhaps your reason for burdening the already failing eco-system with another cancerous organism is because you failed, or chose not to get an abortion after getting knocked up. What ever the case may be, congratulations!
In previous societies, having children made some sort of sense, either practically, economically or otherwise. More babies meant eventually, more hands on the farm, more soldiers to defend our homeland, or more people to fill the pews at the altar of our glorious church.
In the modern age, with cities bursting at the seams, water drying up from rivers before it can reach the ocean, and shortages of almost every resource used by man, it has become painfully unapparent to most people that having children makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, and by doing so is a direct act of social, economic and environmental terrorism.
The average human being produces up to 1000 kilograms of garbage every year. Considering people live well into their 80s and 90s now, it is safe to say that your child will first require well more than 100 000 kilograms of raw materials to be harvested from nature (taking into account that the very production of consumer goods generates waste), consume these materials in one way or another, and then dump 100 000 kilograms of waste into our environment. that's 50 metric tonnes of waste I'll have to suffer with because you felt the need to have a child. Thanks. Not only will that-screaming-brat-you cant-shut-up-behind-me-at-the-bank require us to cut down acres of trees, harvest hectares of crops, slaughter countless animals and consume my precious oxygen, it will also need dozens of acres to spread its waste onto afterwards.
As it stands, we cannot provide sustenance for the human beings on this planet. Their lies entire nations of people who cannot find clean drinking water, or food with proper nutritional value. Why? Because people think that it is their right or obligation to produce the worst virus ever let lose on this planet; Homo Sapien. Not only does this particular organism kill everything it comes in contact with, but it feels the constant need to come in contact with more organisms in order to accelerate is destruction of all eco systems it comes in contact with. Like Ebola, Homo Sapiens accelerate their population with every generation, producing offspring faster than it can destroy itself, despite the myriad of ways we have invented to cure the earth of ourselves.
Perhaps while reading this you have had a revelation of some sort, questioning for the first time why you have kids, or why you may want kids one day. I am not necessarily telling you not have children, by all means, if you take the right steps before having your child, then you need not feel guilty about ejecting your brood. If you want to have a child, simply murder someone else's child, or kill yourself after your unprotected orgasm, thus to minimize the spread of the horrible and destructive scourge of Homo Sapiens.
