Hey, speak for yourself. I’m a “European American” and I’ve got kids.
But your point is well taken and your image of the “pet cemeteries they leave behind” is amusing.
So do I - I've started a whole new bunch :)
Seriously, my grand kids are older than my new children.
Somebody has to stand against the extinction, planned or not, by negative genetic practices, such as homosexuality, abortion and birth control, of the great peoples of Western culture.
I am too, but a lot of people my age (almost 40) have one or none...The pet thing is from the people I used to eat lunch with; it was eerie how they would talk about animals like people (complete with health insurance, birthdays, etc.).
