A 1000 times faster than the natural background rate of extinction. And a lot of people are unaware of this. 5 major mass extinctions obviously the last major mass extinction on the planet was the one that took out the dinosaurs right now were living through what they called the anthropocene in anthropocene translates to the age of man its where the human impact on our planet is so great that were actually changing the fossil record of our future so you know i try and reduce my Carbon Footprint as much as i can i drive an electric car the house that were sitting in this paradisal or were in and thats great and there are more and more people putting up solar panels and buying electric cars and going began and thats all good for the planet but as long as were still adding a 1000000000 people to the planet every 12 years i dont think that those adaptations are happening fast enough. Sound sumo who knows who. To. Sumo the. Google. Shows this to. Where. The. You. Know the. Me. Right back to you wrote about my dog marty at the time who passed away he made me think about family more than in this ryssdal sense he was a bad technically labeled a bad dog we got go and had a great relationship together and he became very happy and became a totally different dog and i kind of learned what love could do for something for someone and that was kind of has projected me to where i sit in my life and that song is probably my Favorite Song ive ever written the greatest love song i think i could ever write i mean were helping the thing and again it goes back to that whole idea that theres no reason to bring more kids world i feel like bringing children of the world is suffering in the world and we will take things that are really need love the. Nose and with Something Else that you need to give the love to we do our own thing we enjoy our lives he plays music 4 nights 5 nights out of the week we like to sleep then yeah thats really i wish to have thats really meant you dont spend money on things its very convenient not to have it so its a very small part of it but it is very convenient and the kids i got very lucky my parents are amazing people they took care of me and so will give me so much loaf theres still given so much that its amazing. And i really didnt have that i had more of like. People telling me my mom telling me my grandma telling me like i dont have kids is the biggest mistake you could make you know and that probably think a part of it you know. I feel like. My old grandma my own mom everybody you know that was generations before us didnt have a choice and they were pressured into it it was like you had to grow up have babies there was no other there was no other option so im going to take full advantage of busy having a choice and not feeling like i have got to have kids or theres no other way its a privilege really to be able to not be shunned for having this choice i know a lot of people they would feel incomplete if they didnt have kids and they get pressure from family and. Just pressure from everyone around them because everyone else is having kids so theres still a lot of places mostly like smaller towns are more concerned of towns that so want you to have a lot of babies. I think theres some return all instinct in women because i definitely quintile while ill make feel this need to like. Hold the baby bird like you know that baby fever thing i feel like thats a pretty hormonal thing and its emotional thing its not super realistic you know theres this feeling that like the only thing you do with your life that you leave behind is your your child and the predecessors and all that and i dont i dont agree with that i think. Again everything you do has an effect on the planet around you the world the people and not having kids for me i feel like a better suited for that i feel like i bring more george a World Without having responsibilities that im not really feeling fit to take her or fit to deal with i feel. More time to write songs to make music i do i think it makes a difference i think this is this community here in Longmont Colorado to. Have some friends that really.

Sort of about a year and a half in like 3 thats her mom karen this is when karen zoe came to live with me here in this house he was 2 and a half from them. And they had lived here. For a half years now i do i do not have children i have never been married ive been single all my life im really not very relationship oriented i identify primarily as gay but even without like a sam not very relationship oriented and i just never felt very good about the idea of bringing children into the world because i didnt feel like things were in very good shape that a life was just going to be a lot of suffering for them d. N. A. Has made as very competitive by necessity thats just how species evolve in the strongest survive and oftentimes that involves unimaginable cruelty. I am sure that we need to stop it from continuing to grow because its like you put you. In a bath a warm water with a little bit of sugar and they just keep periphery do seem to put it out alcohol and till they have polluted their environment so much that they die its kind of sad that we dont have any more control over our selves in our environment this little one celled he stored in isms.

Of life which was more planned always but you know after a half years of being in there when they left that was a bittersweet moment bitter because you can become very attached to both of them.

Well you know the hard thing weve kind of adopted because were all pirates for so long. I mean theyre in this small ball and sniffs it hard to achieve it. Its. Not something. The limited self did big fish already 90 percent of the dark on any pinball connor. Contemplations groups 75 times they do it several times a day with the big fleets no you get an idea why. We have to understand we can not stay still and just. Be with them this will be the only going to the hours. Im doing this because i want them for the future world to the future generations to have and enjoy the ocean we have. So what weve got to do is identify the threats that we have its crazy. Let it be an arms race is on all sides very Dramatic Development only closely and going to exist i dont see how that strategy will be successful very critical time to sit down and talk. Or used to before. That was weird. Would you or do her children i would not worry i dont in my childhood like me because in my childhood my mother my biological mother tried very very hard to be the best parent she could and to raise me to be the best person i could be and. I ended up not liking her and i dont like her as a person and. That inst that fact has instilled a belief in me that even if i tried the hardest i possibly could to create. A nice individual. Foster. A valuable person to send out into the world. That they still would not. Like me as a person. Of half. Bottles. We met in 2001 here in the United States at work that was our 1st so at 17 years i decided to have children when i was in my early fiftys my career didnt go the right way. My spiritual search continued and i wanted to have more to. To change careers to find balance in life to find happiness and to find some spiritual answers for myself so i fall paving the child would be an obstacle rather than help. These are all waiting pictures. For you to. Go. I still love you of course. That is. In the 3rd world but still a matter of survival a person must have many children in order for some of them to take care of him or her when they are all. In a well developed world and well developed countries there is a very good social support system so you would have your retirement the government will take care of you and you would be much better off without children you could retire earlier you would have more savings. Miss so think its a lifestyle and its over you dont sweat expensive to raise a child human states if you want to get a good indication of spotless stuff well and dont just leave them. I think of the so that not to have children in my twenties when i realize that life will start. That suffering in some form as a guarantee to everybody well happiness is not and you just did not want to bring a new life into this world. I dont know that i regret it. You always have a thought that perhaps im missing out on something. And certainly my father says he thinks id be exceptional mother and wed be exceptional parents but i think its harder today to not work as a one because i think the cost of living stops some much but it was covered with very snowboard work over it completely completely would you stay home and raise children potentially i think based on my experience working with children and the children that. Having one parent home seemed to be a lot more what better behaved better communicators just seems to be a little more balanced i think because they had a parent theyre highly involved in the long story short we just kind of kick the can down the road if you will you know maybe later later just never happened for us but whether it was careers or. Where weve had a lot of ups and downs with careers and pauses and unemployment or career changes and geographic location moves and kind of all those things just delay delay and next thing you know youre here in the upper fortys and youre in your happy with your spouse and where you are i would say that most of our friends if they dont have children whether theyre married or single most of them have dogs or cats for the most part dogs and we find that all of us think that our dogs are like our babysitter i do think people are as theres more and more people theres more more traffic theres more more congestion theres not as much opportunity to be out in open spaces and finding those things that i think really help us relax. For me its being with my dog its being outside every day and if theres less and less Natural Resources if we lose the National Park if we lose those open spaces that i think are key to human balance i think you will see a lot more aggressive behaviors in your ability and in patients the more dense the world gets the more angry i think people get and thats unfortunate for me personally i. Regretted not having children i think we you know have a good bond ourselves and were able to strengthen that and put time and energy into each other without having to have you know needing to put time and energy into the children as well. My name isnt. And i have a masters in psychology and since. Ive been writing nonfiction and researching the childfree choice and 2 books ive written related to that topic. And the 2nd one is called the baby. I dont have any regrets because its not having children has allowed me. In my life to create the life that i want and have the adventures that i have had the career that ive wanted to pursue i think ive been able to do so many more things i think than i would have been able to do if they really had been at the central focus of. The title is the fact or fiction childfree couples are happier than couples with kids. And used to be. A big debate. There isnt one. Thats my. Asking the question why does society find the child free choice so hard to accept my book baby matrix and 2 assumptions and beliefs that Society Holds that judges the child free choice where where i landed was a set of believes that have been with us for generations and its collectively called. And listen just means the x. Saltation of parenthood motherhood birth and putting it on a pedestal and our society has been doing that you can go back to the roman times that its been pushed into our brains in our like our social and cultural hardware of what were supposed to be in supposed to do that people think. These beliefs are true 3 powerful assumptions is if you dont have the desire to have children theres something wrong with you as a person theres something wrong with you psychologically something wrong with you in terms of you havent figured out your 1st specially for women your female identity somethings wrong there theres also the assumption that were biologically wired to want children theres absolutely no evidence to support that so there is of course evidence that we have biological processes going on if for pregnancy at the time of birth but no biological processes innately that create this somehow desire to have children and a 3rd powerful one is that by raising children thats when you find true fulfillment in life. Theyre all myths. In my research one thing i continue to notice is that theres pressure so its not so much a fear the childfree have as much as the experience from others who want them to do what they did so they others loved ones their family members they can put different kinds of pressure on a childfree couples for example to make them feel guilty for not bringing grand kids onto the sea not doing what they did so that they will have a bond of even closer bond because they will have this thing called parenthood when i was researching the baby matrix i looked at the issue of what if youre old and you have no children will you be old and lonely what will life. And what ive found from reading what has already been study is what people find in their golden years or their elder years in terms of their well being whats most important that helps them have a positive well being is that they are financially secure so that when theyre retired they basically have enough money to live and also that their partner is alive so it didnt really rest on. Depending on their children for them to be happier in their older years. I decided to change my mind to try to become a mother for a number of reasons of course one reason was a lot of pressure from it was also. Really one. Major change in my life. I started feeling she would want to be at least one good reason for me to create another school in this world into this world. To me and i wanted to raise person so to speak a new generation i wanted to raise my child from the mainstream i wanted to be progressive parents and. I wanted to share with my child the only spiritual things spiritual. Me and my husband felt by the sea with a lot of struggle i wanted to share this information with my child. Really. I think. Thats very special actually thats unusual creates previously i used to leave mostly for myself and now i get the you. Know the child to give advice to give. My wife. Im going to be through with you just to get. To help people so i came to this world to be useful. Because taking care of her and provided for the family. But the. Loss of hope and. There is. Much more loft in the house right now where one of the shes the most precious thing that i have. I feel the face. During the Great Depression which old mr remember there was most of my family were unemployed.
