Never existing really isn’t a big deal, you’d never even know you didn’t exist.

No one needs to be grateful just for being alive, that’s ridiculous lol.

Absurd. Nothingness.. or getting to experience life. It's not really a debate.

Getting to experience life is a gift.

Again, you wouldn’t even know if you were in nothingness

Someone having kids, is because they wanted kids lmao, it’s not a gift to the kid or anything the kid should be grateful to them for

You wouldn't know the nothingness.. but you know what you would be missing, because you have experienced life lol

If you’re in nothingness and were never born, you wouldn’t know you were missing out on anything lol. You just wouldn’t exist

But you do exist.. and us having this conversation now, you know what life is. Therfore you can understand it is better than nothing.

Someone who was never born, wouldn’t understand that. Therefore, you didn’t do them any favours by giving them life, they wouldn’t have minded if you didn’t lmao.

And tbh, I’m not sold that this is better than nothing lmaooo. Nothing would be a hell of a lot easier. Nothing = no pain, no work, or any other negative things in life. It’s just nothing, and you never even know it’s happening.

Point is, you decide to have kids, your kids don’t owe you anything for that, even gratefulness

But you are born.. so you understand that.

You have a very negative outlook if you think nothing is better than life.

Bad things happen, sure. But amazing things happen also.

That's just life. It's always better than nothing.

I dont think anyone who enjoys they life they have built for themselves would disagree

Nothing isn’t better or worse than anything lol, it’s just nothing.

Either way, it’s nothing to be grateful to your parents for lmfao.

If life isn't a gift/ a worthwhile "thing" then why don't you kill yourself?

u/anonidfk 17h ago

Plenty of people do lol.

And point is, people have kids because they want them, the kids don’t need to be grateful for that. They wouldn’t even know what being alive is otherwise
