    As a selfish daughter, I think this is hilarious tbh.

    But I also have a mother who understands and fully supports my and my partner’s reproductive choices and I probably would not feel that way if circumstances were different.

    Y’all reacting to this with no context or anything.

    I’m sure most of us know someone who would 100% give a sticker like this jokingly to their parent, and the parent thinking it’d be a laugh to slap on the car.

    I sure as hell do.

    So for all y’all know, this is a joke that you arent in on and getting pissed over.

    I mean, yeah. These are the kind of people whose skeletons should be found on the couch in front of a still running television by whoever shows up to evict them for failure to pay taxes because they didn’t have anyone in their lives willing and able to put them in a home.

    Bedsore Meadows is the luxurious death option.

    “Why can’t you give up untold amounts of money, free time, peace/quiet, lack of stress, and freedom so I can have my grandkids around for a few hours a week? Stop being so selfish.”

      Also, why don’t you want to bring new human beings in a world that we have destroyed, that will struggle when I’ll be gone and you’ll be powerless to help? So selfish

      These are also the people who either disappear anytime their kids need help with the kids, or else were such terrible parents they’re the last person on earth their kids would leave alone with their children.

    These boomers are lucky we are civilized enough to NOT take the matter into our own hands to save social security and permit proper economic distrbution of resource so normal couple can have kids.

    Truly fucking clueless.

    Regime bootlickers won’t acknowledge that many people are NOT having kids due to failed social policy their beloved owners and their regimes whores got going for us.

    Obviously this person was too selfish to have enough children to produce grandchildren.

      It’s a sexist joke that denigrates their own daughter for making decisions for herself.

      Sure, but it still a bit much to put on your car. I don’t have ovaries but I don’t think I’d like to see my parent have this if I did.

      “my children are thrown away in a tissue” doesn’t quite have the same ring to it

        I wouldn’t assume that. What a horrible position to be in. I could see my mother slapping this on and exclaiming GET IT IT’S A JOKE?! Which, how does a reasonable person respond to that? Most would probably wince and move on, while mom is gleefully unaware at how much it hurts her daughter.

        And we haven’t even gotten to what if daughter can’t have children and is too ashamed to admit it!

        I don’t even assume this person has a daughter. For all we know, they have a non-binary child and wish them “happy daughter’s day” every year. Not that I have a mom like that or anything /projection

      But…that’s realistically where they ACTUALLY are. If the grandchild is already inside the daughters overies, that means she’s already pregnant. Which means, in order to be selfish, that would mean she’s just NOT allowing a 9+ month old child to be born. Like the contractions start, and the mother shoves her hand in, and shoves the kid back up there.

      “Oh no you don’t! You STAY in there!!! I don’t care if it’s been 96 months! MOMMIES STILL PREGNANT!!!”

        Okay, there are just multiple layers of bad women’s anatomy in the original post and in the comments.

        Eggs are in the ovaries. Without hormonal birth control, generally one egg (but sometimes more and sometimes none) is released from the ovary, travels down the fallopian tube, and if it is fertilized, implants in the uterus. If it is not fertilized, it passes out of the uterus, the uterine lining is shed (that’s menstruation), and the process repeats the following month.

        There is no “grandchild” in an ovary, any more than there is a “grandchild” in a testicle.

        And if a fertilized egg implants anywhere outside the uterus, that’s an ectopic pregnancy – which is not viable because only the uterus has the capability to grow with and provide nourishment to a developing fetus. Not only that, but ectopic pregnancies are generally fatal to the mother (or however that person identifies).

          There is some bad woman’s anatomy here too. The egg is broken down and reabsorbed before menstruation starts.

          Menstruation happens when the lutheal body desintigrates. Ending the fake pregnancy effect it has. Since there is no embryo to continue the process, the lack of progesterone gets detected as a non-viable pregnancy resultong in a fake miscarriage.

        I mean, the kids are neither in a ballsack nor the ovaries.

        If you consider a fertilized egg a child, which you shouldn’t, they would be in the uterus.

        If it’s inside an ovary, the mother’s going to die.

          You guys need some anatomy lessons. Women are born with all the oocytes (eggs) they will ever have. They don’t make them on demand like dudes do sperm. So it is entirely accurate to say any children a woman will have are already in her ovaries, barring circumstances like surrogacy, adoption, etc.

            I’m not saying that eggs are not inside the ovaries, I’m saying that eggs are not children.

                And neither are fetuses. Birth turns a fetus into a child. His grandchildren don’t exist yet.

                Which is what I said in my post that uid0grid0 responded to, saying that I needed anatomy lessons.

                Sperm is not a child.
                An egg is not a child.
                A fertilized egg is also not a child, but some people think it is.

                  Some people also don’t take this anywhere that serious and y’all’s conversation seems really silly. Nobody on Lemmy (within reason, I’m sure there are idiots here too) is going to seriously argue that either gamete is a child.

                  These types of conversations are the ones that make me question just how prevalent autism is on Lemmy. People engage in wordplay and don’t literally mean what they say all the time yet these types of comments are 90% on posts like this.
