Not because I hate children.

And definitely not because I hate life.

My reason is simple.

I don't want to pass suffering on to another human being.

I can't be struggling...

And then bring another person into the same struggle.

I can't be fighting poverty...

While my children are fighting the same battle.

I can't be a victim of poor governance, corruption, insecurity, unemployment, and bad infrastructure...

And then knowingly bring children into that same environment.

I want more for them.

I want them to have quality education.

Good healthcare.

Security.

Reliable electricity.

And the freedom to enjoy life without constantly worrying about survival.

I don't want my children to inherit my struggles.

I would rather carry my own struggle alone...

Than create another person to carry it with me.

Maybe Nigeria will change someday.

Maybe the future will become better.

But as things stand today...

I don't want to bring a child into a world I don't believe is ready to give that child the life they deserve.

This isn't hatred for children.

It's my personal definition of responsibility.

Nice decision, just learn a skill, start a business, focus &work hard, put your trust in THE LORD and pray unceasingly, avoid unnecessary actions, people and states. And I tell you, you'll soon be established.

Most people who Japan does it for the unborn generations.

It might be easier for you to say this since you are a man (.. or a boy from your moniker ). You can sow your seeds all through your lifetime and so you have the option or even luxury to wait until your situation improves before having children.
Contrast this in women who have a limited time frame for procreation and you might understand why your assertion may not apply to their gender!
