"You should have kids so you'll have someone who will take care of you when you're older."

Bruh, I'm not subjecting a person to this godforsaken world so I can guilt trip them into babysitting me when I'm old and senile.

as someone who's parents' retirement plan was that - I absolutely agree. There's no way anyone should subject their kids to that level of guilt and stress.
