Sharing his decision on TikTok, the youth explained that it is a personal choice he is determined to stick to.
Man Makes Bold Declaration
Identified on TikTok as @alohanosamudiamen, the young man said he would rather die without having children than bring a child into poverty.
According to him, having kids without financial stability could lead to regret and others judging him.
In his words:
“…Personally, for me, if I am not wealthy, as in very wealthy to my taste, I am not giving birth…I would rather die without a child…”
His statement quickly drew many attentions on TikTok for its unusual perspective.
Reason Behind the Decision
The youth explained that he wants to avoid a scenario where a child born into financial struggles laments online about why their parents settled for less.
He emphasized that his choice is about ensuring his future children enjoy a comfortable life and opportunities he could provide.
“I have to be very wealthy before I consider having an offspring. It’s about giving them the life they deserve,” he added.
Netizens Reacts
His video sparked a flurry of reactions online, with users divided over his stance.
Some praised his focus on financial responsibility, calling it practical and mature. Others criticized him, arguing that wealth should not be the sole factor in deciding to have children.
