Summary

Hi. Conservatives sure want Americans to have more children, but they don't seem to like children at all or want to support them in society! In today's episode, we look at the many challenges Americans face if they want to become parents, and the questions one has to answer to make such a decision.

0:00.0	Hi, hello and welcome to the news. I'm your news mommy, Katie Stoll. Wait, news on? It's weird
0:10.6	either way. Anyway, Cody's fine. He's alive for now. And here's some more news, babies. Oh, look
0:20.5	at them. They're just like little adults except small. New, their skulls are soft and squishy,
0:27.6	and it's socially acceptable for them to poop themselves. Not fair, in my opinion. But hey,
0:33.5	here's a question. A question many people in their reproductive years are struggling with.
0:38.8	Should you have one of these cute, tiny jerks kind of a loaded question filled with lots of subquestions
0:47.2	and no clear answers. And as someone in their late 30s, it's something I feel like I get asked
0:52.8	about almost every week. Everyone I know who is staring down the barrel of a dusty womb is feeling
0:59.6	the pressure to make up their damn minds and decide if we want to close up shop or we'll come in
1:04.5	a new tenant. So let's dig into that. Are you expected to have a child? Are you obligated to have
1:11.5	a child for the good of society or are you obligated not to have a child also for the good of society?
1:18.0	We're often given conflicting messages and guilt over either needing to have children for
1:23.2	the public good or needing to not have children for the public good. That alone can get pretty
1:27.7	confusing. And we're not even done asking questions yet. There's also the financial aspect to your
1:33.2	decision. Can you afford to have a child? But counterpoint. In your old age, can you afford not to
1:41.6	have a child taking care of you? You might want to delay the question until you feel financially stable
1:47.2	and or you found a reliable partner, but whoopsie! Uh-oh! Then it might be too late! And of course,
1:53.6	your health should be considered. Is it safe for you to have children? Would it put your health
1:58.5	at risk? Are these medical decisions even up to you and your doctor or rather up to a shadowy
2:03.4	counsel of non-doctor men and to a lesser extent ladies who wear ceremonial robes and carry special
2:09.6	hammers that they used to crop open walnuts to feed upon the delicious flesh within? Why don't we
2:14.8	all get these hammers? Wow! Boy, that's a lot of questions! So let's just take a deep breath
	...
