Responsibilities of the Parent

2 Upvotes

Besides providing clothing, food, and shelter, what do you think the responsibilities of a parent are? I think the answers people give have probably evolved over the decades, and that’s why I think there’s been such a shift away from just reflexively having all the kids.

This sub has new moderators, but anti-natalists are still the norm here.

0 Upvotes

As you know, we have new mods. However, anti-natalist content is still in the majority and getting upvoted more than natalist content. They are also cherry-picking 1 or 2 misogynists who comment in certain discussions and lying that the misogynists are the majority of the sub.

Can the mods starting banning the anti-natalist childfree regulars?
