It also requires emotional maturity and financial stability but they don’t like hearing that because it changes their idea of a miracle that happens to them into a conscious decision that requires personal responsibility.

They think that having kids is a life phase that they’re required to go through and have no agency in but that’s not true. It’s not puberty, it’s a conscious choice that you make

Having figured out away to outsmart the problem means that the problem was there to begin with.
