I have been an Anti natalist from a long time now. A simple Google search will help one know what anti natalism is all about and therefore I am not going to expand on that. With that as the premise, the term “Good parent” does not evoke positive feelings in me. In order to be a good parent, one has to be a parent first, which is an act of pure selfishness. The selfishness of having the pleasure of giving birth, raising a child, filling the void in one's life etc etc.
“Selfishness is
not as one wishes to live,it is asking others to live as one wishes
to live” - Oscar Wilde
But what about the
child itself?? Has a consent being taken from the non existent person
that whether he/she wants to be born in the first place?
According to
Jimmy Alfonso Licon, procreation is only morally justified if there
is some method for acquiring informed consent from a non-existent
person, and due to the impossibility of this, procreation is
therefore immoral
In my opinion, lot of parents simply suck. A good parent at the
max is just a bad parent (for choosing to be a parent). So who is
a great parent? The answer is, A Non parent!!!
A
person who chooses to be a non parent by fighting all the biological
needs and social pressures in the pure interest of the child (Non
existent of course) is a Great parent.
Finally,
Sleep is good.
Death is better. Not being born is the best!
