Any books on parents which go out and beyond in sacrificing for their children? Not only in life or death situations but those smaller acts like fasting when money is tight so their children may eat a proper meal. Not having any holidays and rather mending old tags for their offsprings future financial independance fonds. Basically anti-boomer and the whole self-care-first mentality literature.

Men grief differently, especially as they are helpless in this process, they can't even share the physical pain, which would be usually how a man works out their grief. They also aren't told what a miscariage actually means. He was pale as a ghost when I asked him what to do with the remains. Didn't cross his mind before that, he thought it would be like a bigger menstruation.

Imaging expecting a child, already looking for names and a future with it just to have your wife go through "soft" labour contractions for three days, bleeding through multiple bath towels in pain. It's hard to witness it without being able to help in any way.

While I might not be able to prevent the last part, I can at least prevent any hope before due time, so the parting wont be that hard for him. No use in tormenting us both.

Only a delusional degenerate would consider such moderate pains a reason for non-existance. Pain is the salt in ones soup and in most cases dependant on ones own actions and mentality. After all nothing worth having comes for free. Take children. To get them the woman you love needs to endure pains which can bring her on the brink of death, yet we adapted and nearly no woman would give her kids away to have it any other way. Plus pain and suffering are great character forming acts. People which have never cried out for a god from suffering, are also never really able to enjoy life, all they know is moderate existance.

Pain is only as bad as you allow it to be. Change your view of it, from being a victim to a stoic stone slowly being formed into something better, cleansed from sufferficial decadence.

Anti-natalism comes from a pathological mind, it's directly against everything we have been evolutionary selected for. Such individuals will never change anything for the etter, but only cease existing and therefore leave the world to those not as pathologically inclined.

Maybe read Hamsuns Growth of the soil.
