"Having kids is like doing drugs. Because it's not for everybody. You've got to be in the right mindset. It costs a lot of money. There's peer pressure involved. And it could ruin your life."
- Myq Kaplan

There is a big difference with 'raising good kids' vs 'having kids'. Most people can have kids but not all will raise them well.

Not everyone has the mental capacity to be a good parent.

I’m glad people have kids but I don’t think it means that I have to have kids. Everybody doesn’t need to be a parent.

This is the only Youtube channel where I actually look forward to all the videos

The fact you don’t have millions of followers on this channel is a puzzle to me!

People say their kids are their greatest accomplishment so that people can hear them say it.

I tried to make a 7 year relationship work because, we had a kid together. It was a NIGHTMARE. I had to leave because, she kept calling the cops, tossing my stuff and accusing me of cheating. Turns out drum roll.... She was cheating on me and probably needed to justify it by gaslighting. I have to co-parent with her now and it's difficult because, the pain is still there.

I watch this guy so much that I sometimes finish his sentences! Wisest man I've ever came across the internet for sho

People are giving Akaash so much grief because he clowns on the same people who are in his exact current situation. His entire brand is clowning on other peoples relationship. If you dish it out then you better be ready to receive it.

Would like to listen to an episode of Sexton talking about law schools for young people who want to go in or advice on it. THANKs!

I intentionally didn’t have kids and now I regret it very much. But…it floors me that everyone thinks they’re the best parent, and seem obsessed with their kids. I’ve met a handful of fantastic mothers and fathers, my ex mother-in-law is one of them, but the vast majority of parents really should have had a hobby or job or got involved with other grown adults. The human experience is so vast to diminish it to only birhing and raising.

What you said about your godparents is so true. My own late and childless godparents were like second parents to me as a young child. I spent as much time with them as I did at home with my parents.

One of their nephews looked at me at his funeral and said, “they did have a child, you”.

Thank you Jim for making the most sense about parenting and parenthood.

JJS = a real one. Got hip to him a few years ago and love his energy and delivery. I've also been through a nightmare divorce and his content hits. Thanks, man.

Lmao James had so much to say when Ayesha curry was talking smack about steph but now when it’s someone who’s podcast he’s been on, now he’s coming in to defend him.
