Stop teaching your children to share.

Realistically, the grown-up world isn't going to freely share their things with other people. Forcing your children to share with other children won't accomplish anything, and instead, teaches your child not to be an individual, confident human being. By teaching, sharing is caring, you are forcing your child to share their things with other children they don't know, and allowing OTHER children that it's OKAY to ask for things and be given to. That's not how the world works.

Instead, teach your children how to say 'no' when they don't want to share. It builds individuality, character and confidence. It also teaches children who want to borrow your child's things that not everything is going to be handed to them freely. Stop doing that shit. Please. Your child shouldn't have to share their toys if they don't want to.

Sharing is NOT caring, because children who want what you really have don't give a fucking shit about you. Truth be told.

Anaparental Flag

Anaparental: referring to a monopersonal/unipersonal family, wherefore a familial nucleus/entity consists of one person only. 

Similar to unparental and soloparental, but this could be also autoparental (self-parenting). Reminder this is socioaffective/socioaffectional/socioaffectionate not biological.

Anglophones uses more -parenting than -parental(ity)/-parenthood apparently, I’m leaving here some keywords: anaparenting, uniparenting, autoparenting, unparenting/nonparenting, soloparenting, monoparenting, solopersonal, autopersonal, socioparenting, socioparental.

Those terms are used in economics and juridically in some countries, however they don’t need to be institutionalized/constitutionalized/academicized for it to exist.

Is there a word in German, or perhaps another language, that means "I know I'm not a parent, but I'm certain you're doing it wrong. "? I think perhaps quoting an obscure German word would make it sting less.

Then again, I guess it dosen’t have to actually exist; part of the humor could be looking it up, and finding it dosen’t exist!

Parenting is Stunning but its not easy .It should not be forced upon the married couple. Don't say a woman that she will eventually change her mind .Yep, women are still being judged, the look of shock, women who choose not to have children

Why not? You should. If you don't I can't! Have children!

I have been told many times throughout my life that I must have children. I have been bullied, interrogated, argued with, and accused taking away the rights of others have children. None of these arguments have been about about abortion or whether or not a preterm baby is alive and neither is this post. This is about becoming a parent, why I will not, and that it is okay.

I am not selfish for not having children. I have chosen not to have children because I care about them, I care about others, I don't need children, and someone else will do it.

Most people will have children so I do not have to. I do not need children to make me complete. I am very happy without them. My fulfillment comes from friendship, work, art, philosophy, science, and adventure.These are the thing I love and I would take them over becoming a parent any day.

I cannot insure a good future for my children, I cannot take proper care of them because I suffer from mental illness. I refuse to become a child abuser to satisfy society.

I will not increase the world population any further, I will not make someone else starve so my DNA can be passed on. Instead I put those resources into others who are already alive.

I'm not taking away anyone's right to have children by choosing not to have them. In fact I am helping by making room in the population for those who cannot live without children to have them.

Only the most dedicated people should become parents. Taking responsibility for someone else's life is very serious. It cannot be undertaken lightly. I do not pass the test. I do not have the desire. Something in my biology and my psychology says "no." Perhaps like a cell that chooses apoptosis to save the organism of which it is a part I know reproduction would be a mistake. I yield to reason and my nature. I am a good enough parent to say "no."
