Three sons all grown one daughter in high school.
I'm not very good at very many things, but one thing I'm positive I'm good at is being a dad.
Yes, I'm a happy parent.
That's not what she meant. It's not "are you happy being a parent?" It's "are you, a person who happens to be a parent, genuinely happy?"
And their answer was yes no matter how many times you move the goal post.
Not my question, not moving goalposts. I've got no dog in this race my dude. I was just explaining that they didn't read the question right. If that's still their answer then great! Good for them! But I'd love to hear their actual answer to the actual question chappel roan posed from their own "lips" thank you very much.
They read the question just fine, YOU just didn't like their answer, and are looking for ways to show how wrong they are.
Nope. They literally didn't read it correctly. You're projecting hard here dude. Just because this situation implies you also have terrible reading comprehension skills doesn't mean you have to take it so personally.
Seriously, I was just trying to help him out by clearing up the miscommunication. I truly don't care one way or the other what people do with their own genitals
Hahahaha, you're so biased.
Not op bro. I was just letting them know they misread the prompt. I'd love for them to be happy as a person having chosen to have children. Being miserable sucks! I hope that's not the case, but I don't know if it is or not because op pointedly did not address it
There's a huge difference between "I am happy with my choice" and "I am happy in my life"
Keep on willfully misreading and mischaracterising what was said to agree with your agenda.
That's really effective in life, so I hear.
Regardless of what the answer is, you are definitely not happy. Seriously my dude. Why are you being so aggressive? Miscommunication happens all the time. It isn't this big of a deal
I have no agenda. Unlike you I don't give a fuck what someone else decides to do with their life. I'm not misreading or mischaracterizing anything. Chappelle roan has been astoundingly clear on her opinion. You're just not listening, and arguing against what you feel like arguing against. You're angry at a strawman and it's preventing you from actually talking about the topic seriously
Are you lost? This is a community for those who are childfree.
A question was asked and I answered. How could anyone with no children, happy or unhappy, answer the question that was posed?
It is not necessary to have children to recognize that parenthood isn't a cure for unhappiness.
Valid point, but that's not the question that was asked.
