5 Reasons He Refuses to Have Kids: 2 Selfish, 3 Selfless

In a viral video, a man shared five reasons why he has chosen to remain childfree. He described two personal, or “selfish,” motives and three he called “selfless.” He said he did not want the long-term financial burden of raising a child. He also admitted he could not guarantee unconditional love for a child he might not like. His selfless concerns included the uncertainty of his own health, finances and lifespan. He questioned whether the world is a safe place for children. He also highlighted the dangers of pregnancy and said he could not put a woman at risk just to satisfy his own desire.
