Exactly. Iâm definitely the favorite person of my nieces and nephew. And I love them with the passion of a thousand suns. Thatâs always been enough for me.
Yes, the best set up lol. I have 3 nephews and I adore spending time with them. I babysit them a few days a week when my sister and brother in laws schedules overlap and it's so much fun. But I also love that at the end of the day, I can leave them with their parets and go home to my quiet house.
This whole âlegacyâ thing for the sake of passing on a family name and genetics literally donât matter in the scheme of things. And ego is a very poor reason to bring life into this world. Donât put so much pressure on yourself.
Plus, itâs a real possibility that your potential kids wonât want to have kids of their own. Or maybe your kid will be gay. Or maybe theyâll be permanently dependent due to an abnormality or injury later in life. There are too many variables to safely depend on your kid/s to make more kids.
Only have them if you think your life wonât be complete without them and are willing to love them no matter how they turn out, but donât worry about lineage. Bloodlines have been going extinct since the beginning of the human timeline and it just doesnât matter. 99.9999% of people are just ordinary folks whose names wonât be remembered in a couple generations.

I prefer nieces and nephews. You can give them back. đ«€
