Voat News and Politics
A space where submissions related to BOTH politics and general news can be posted without censorship.
We ask that subscribers self-moderate by both using their votes on submissions and comments and by reporting spam/illegal content for removal.
If someone is rude let them know with your vote. It is not the role of the moderators to police "politeness".
If you think a comment or a post is quality, up-vote it.
Have fun and use your votes!
PLEASE UPVOTE ARTICLES YOU LIKE!!

Oh puh-lease. If you make sure to have enough money and have plenty of friends and family to help you out when you get worn down it'll be fine. Most new parents fail to plan ahead or have an accidental pregnancy and from that perspective I could see things being overwhelming as they adjust to spending most of their time parenting instead of pursuing other things. If you have a friend with a 1 year old and you have a newborn you can get in on those sweet sweet hand me downs and save tons of money. We have SO many modern conveniences now compared to even 50 years ago! Disposable diapers, wireless audio and video baby monitors, super safe cribs and toys. Compared to humans of the past we are sitting pretty when it comes to rearin' some kiddos.
