The path to happiness for millennial men is … kids

(CNN)If you are a millennial man and looking for happiness, you might want to think about becoming a dad.

Just in time for Father’s Day comes a new report in which millennial fathers claimed significantly higher levels of satisfaction with their work and home lives than single men.

“When you look at the percentages and the scores, fathers just seemed to have richer, more meaningful lives that they were more satisfied with than their single counterparts,” said Brad Harrington, executive director of the Boston College Center for Work & Family and a co-author of the report.

The report included surveys with 1,100 millennials between the ages of 22 and 35 who had at least two years professional work experience and were employed at one of five large global corporations in the insurance, financial services, accounting and consulting fields.
Dads get more of a (paid) break at work

On the work front, millennial dads were more satisfied with their workplaces and their career achievements than single millennial men and were more likely to stay with their employers, according to the report. With respect to their overall life satisfaction, millennial men were significantly more likely, ranging from 20% to 40% more likely, to feel that their life conditions were excellent, that they’d gotten the important things they wanted in life and that, in most ways, they were living close to their ideal.

The findings are somewhat surprising, especially with research showing that millennials are on track to have the lowest rates of marriage by age 40 than any previous generation.

“Even though people may say, ‘Oh, millennials don’t care about having kids’ … and they may be more reluctant or they may be delaying their decision … (fatherhood) clearly is enriching the lives of these men, at least according to their self-report,” said Harrington.

I’ve two kids and given them everything but post divorce they decided I was a villain. I’ve mates cut off by their kids post divorce….why? I’ll tell you why…because I disciplined them about the World and how tough it is to survive. I gave them a sense of working hard….whereas my ex wife just let them laze around and eat and drink and watch telly. They preferred her style.

So I’m the villain and she’s the hero.

F~~~ em’ all.

She cheated on me ..... my fault. I showed an interest in another woman......my fault.

My KIDS DID NOT come with a “Path to HAPPINESS”.

Just WHERE do I pick up my path ???

Was it supposed to be e-mailed to me after their births, or was I supposed to get it with their birth certificates ?

More than likely, the millennial men who father children would have reported higher satisfaction anyway: THEY HAVE ENOUGH RESOURCES TO HAVE KIDS.

Sez the mangina that relies on the marriage industry for advertising dollars.

There was a time when I wanted to be a father BUT an itch in the back of my skull told me that in order to be a father I would get f~~~ed over by the vagina life support system.

I am so very lucky that weeminze never found me attractive.

Just another salvo in the tradcon/feminazi counter-offensive. The “sexodus” and “marriage strike” have them p~~~ing their pants so expect more “studies”, “surveys”, and other lies trying to convince all the escaping slaves to return to the plantation.

While married male millennials with children may report a higher overall satisfaction in life now, let’s poll them again after their wives decide to divorce them and take their children away.

Do not date. Do not impregnate. Do not co-habitate. Above all, do not marry. Reclaim and never again surrender your personal sovereignty.

Notice how the survey did NOT interview divorced fathers. That wouldn’t fit in their narrative. I wonder, does CNN own stock in a wedding gown manufacturer that recently went bankrupt?

Meh
I’ll be content to take another path with less people on it thank you very much.

Work at least 2 years, not 10 years. So likely just married. Women won’t married them if they are not working in one of the top 5 global corporations.

They are likely still in the “well behaved” phased. And being in the top 5 corporations help reduce the need for monkey branch. There are not much better monkey branch to swing to so the women will be slightly content in trapping their current branch.

There is no magic in MGTOW, just recognition of the truth and logical decision how to avoid dangers. The red pill is but the truth, it is no magical potion. Do not think in this modern world men have no longer have natural enemies, men are prey to women and government.

I can see the happiness they may bring in my brothers and mates. But just not for me. Forget the pros and cond I prefer not to partake.

Marriage too bitces.

Peace is > piece.

Children cost at least a half million dollars. Do you have a half million dollars to spend? The woman gets pregnant. Okay, now you’re paying for tests in the hospital. No big deal right? You make several visits over a couple of months… Who would notice a couple hundred bucks each visit. Now you’re spending extra money on food. Why? Because she’s eating for two and she’s f~~~ing hungry. Well now that you’re woman is pregnant, the apartment you were living in doesn’t cut it anymore. You need a house. There’s a couple hundred thousand. Hope you don’t have to fix anything first…

Now it’s time. It’s been 8 months, and now in the final month she’s dialating. Which is causing more trips to the hospital because she keeps thinking the baby is coming. Meanwhile, that new house you bought needs stuff for the baby. So now you’re off to buy the essentials… Diapers, baby wipes, a crib… Now her water breaks. Back to the hospital you go. More bills. Only this time, she’s going in to deliver. Now the heavy charges come. The nurses do the prepping, perhaps inject her with some drugs to ease the process along… Now the doctor is here. He ain’t cheap. “Push” he says. “Push”. She’s pushing, and yelling and blaming you “you did this to MEEEEEEEE!!!!” “Push, breath, breath, push” he says. Now the baby is out.

Here comes the next batch of expenses. Filing all the paperwork, moving her to another room, more charges for hospital care and s~~~ty food. Momma and baby are gonna be here for a few days. If you don’t have insurance that’s $16-20,000 a day. So now, after lots of rest and care, mommy and baby are home. Now you need clothes for the little s~~~. Cha-ching. More money out of your bank account. “No big deal”, you think.. Until the baby gets by the mommy milk stage and gets into formula stage. That money is going quick man. More diapers, more wipes, more formula…

Now he starts teething, and with teeth comes solid foods. With solid foods and time comes guess what… More clothes. That baby clothes doesn’t fit. Well guess what! You can’t take it back. So what do you do? Throw it away. Maybe give it to someone you know. Either way, money wasted. Perhaps you decide to save it thinking you will have ANOTHER kid. Mommy will certainly want to save it. It gives her memories.

Now the kid is growing. And for the next 17 years you’ll constantly be taking him to the store to buy clothes. Why? Because he will quickly outgrow it. But that’s not all your expenses. At first it started out harmless. A few baby toys, something to entertain him. Only the toys get more intricate, and more expensive the older he gets. Once he graduates from the action figures that cost $10 a piece to the video games, you’re dumping 400-700 bills on a video game system. Maybe you luck out. Maybe you already have it because you’re a guy who likes to play games in his spare time. Well, remember when you would spend $60-70 a game for yourself? Now you’re spending that for your kid to play HIS games. And paying for all his school supplies, and whatever he needs for whatever after school stuff he gets into, gas to drive him around, money so he can hang with his friends…

Now he’s approaching the end of high school. He’s ready to drive and wants a car. Now.. You could be a cheap dad, and drop a couple hundred bucks on a bulls~~~ car fixer uper, but you probably won’t. And what comes with having a car? Insurance and car maintenance. Which rest assured is most likely coming out of your pocket. As is the money for him to hang with his pals at the mall all summer. Maybe you’re lucky. Maybe you crack the whip and make him get a job. You’re one of the lucky ones.

Now high school is done, and it’s off to the next step in life. Maybe junior wasn’t so great in school and decides on community college. Know what words you’ll be hearing next? “hey dad….” Now let’s say your kid IS smart and ends up at a full fledge college. He says “dad, I wanna go for my masters”. That’s 4 good years of payments where you could have bought a new car or house. At least 5 figures. Let’s say junior grads and doesn’t flame out and drop out. Then hopefully your kid will end up with a 5 or 6 figure income where he can do the same thing you just did. Or worst case, he’ll flame out with bad grades because he was too busy partying to take it seriously. Now think of all the money you just spend on his tuition. Now guess where he is… Back home living with mommy and daddy.

I ask again. Do you have a half million dollars? If you do, what are you doing to do with that money? What will you invest it in?

This is just some propaganda to try and curb the falling birth rate. Seriously. Expect more of this s~~~. In fact none of this crap was cropping up until the birth rate plummeted. Before then it was all about people choosing whether or not to have children. Blah, blah, f~~~ing blah.

Seriously, you need to speak the same post in front of an audience, because what you said was true and very accurate and it could salvage a lot of guys from taking that major plunge.

That’s just the kid, then there’s making sure the wife is all taken care of. So technically the man is spending his life and money and energy on wife and kids.

No thanks. What you detailed is the exact reason I won’t get married and have kids. I rather spend that time and money on buying a comfortable house and furnish it entirely to my liking and my Dave And Busters style game room in the lower level.
