Ideas that sound good.

But only as long as you intend for other people to foot the bill for your ideas. Whilst you intend to pay. Nothing.

Everyone who wants to live indoors pays school fees whether they even have kids or not. If you have kids, you’re the biggest leech on everyone around you possible.

This. Most parents don't even raise their own kids, yet society puts them on a pedestal because "muh human race"

If you hate this world, come serve me and I will give you eternal life to live on Earth, not some imaginary place when you die. I can also give you any skill to follow any career you wish, it should be something you will love doing eternally. I can cure any disease with me methods so you will never fall sick. You must pass these two requirements to be eligible to be my follower;
1. Don't take the covid vaccine.
2. Obey the ten commandments plus the other two Christ gave.
If you can do the two above points, I can and will grant you all that I have said.

My least favorite part of this is how it gets used as a defense against bad parenting. You see cases of kids being miserable due to their parents being mean or careless with them (or even just unhappy in general, because life is hard) and people giggle at them like they're arrogant brats for not recognizing that their parents "do so much" for them so there is nothing to ever be upset about. As if providing food and shelter for their kids is such a big fucking deal, as if going to work and doing some errands is more of a horrifying experience than having to face the world as a vulnerable child.

The most common version of this is just demanding we should have "more" and "better" of something (healthcare, mental health support, prison rehabilitation services, education, support for mothers, etc.) Obviously it would be great if we just woke up tomorrow and that happened but, even in spite of the fact that everyone seems to agree with those as goals, it doesn't happen. Insisting that it must comes from this assumption that we as a "society" just have ample resources and we're holding it back out of meanness. It also assumes that even if we could tangibly afford to fund all these things that there are enough talented and morally sound people to fill the demand for quality doctors, teachers, and therapists.

That's not to say that bad actors don't make things a lot harder, they do. But they are just one of several factors and the people who supposedly want to stop them don't do shit about it, or even show some balls when it comes to thinking about them and identifying the problem.

I think that making people more cynical and aware of just how much of a factor scarcity is would ultimately make things a lot better, we would be a lot slower to consent to anything that would shrink the overall pie we have to cut out of (like shutting down the whole fucking economy and world for two years to theoretically save a few extra people from the flu).

People act like parenthood was some inevitable tra fpr them when they chose to do it.

People choose to get married and procreate and then whine about how having a family is a pain in the ass.

Family planning should be restricted to competency training.

The whole universal compuksory law for education is especially the biggest drain. Everyone wants their kid to have a shot at white collar work, yet people fail to understand the abti glamor that comes with it.

We think that kids belonging in school is the best thing for modern society. Well, so far, it has resulted in decline of competency

I agree with your reasoning but I think making kids go to school until they learn how to read and have some general knowledge is ultimately worthwhile.

I know that. I mean to say that post-primary schooling (after sixth/seventh grade) should not be compulsory. It should be paid out of pocket or require mandatory entrance exams. Otherwise, kids should go straight to work.

My concern is that we don't have much work available for them to do.

Fast food is always hiring. Either that or have blue collar training. Theres plenty of work there since theres growing vacancy in trades due to overpromotion of postsecondary education
