¿Abstendría tener hijos en esta epoca? ¿En serio crees que esta epoca es
peor que todas las otras epocas? Somos animales y como todos los animales vamos a procrear no importa la época--sino tú , tus hermanos o primos o vecinos. Así es, y eso no cambiará.

De acuerdo, un ambiente de miedo y pánico que algunos de nosotros tenemos y que tratamos de instilar a nuestros hijos no es nada bueno. Miedo irracional cría gobiernos totalitarios y fanatismo religioso que causa opresión y da luz a mas miedo. Nada de eso es nuevo. Tú que eres un chico muy tanguero debes conocer la letra de esas canciones--algunas muy mondanas y sabias.

No creo que esta época sea peor que otras. Yo solo hablo de que en esta habría que abstenerse. Si me preguntás sobre otras no sé lo suficiente, pero casi seguro también habría que abstenerse (con eso no quiero decir exactamente que deberíamos desaparecer... ) Con lo poco que sé, me aventuro a decir que hubo alguna que otra época más propicia que la actual, tal vez cuando se podía evitar estar en una guerra subiendose a un caballo y cabalgando hacia el horizonte, o cuando no estaba el planeta sobrepoblado, etc, pero reitero: me refiero solo a esta época.

Otra forma de decir esa frase sería: "Somos animales y como todos los animales vamos a matar al que tengamos al lado cuando falte alimento." Sí, puede ser verdad, ¿pero realmente no se puede evitar? ¿no tenemos la posibilidad de desviar esos instintos? ¿no hay gente que lo ha hecho? Yo conozco muchísima gente que no procreó. Somos animales, pero no tenemos las mismas necesidades que el resto de los animales: podemos procrear sin tener relaciones sexuales, de una manera artificial. Podemos mentirle al cuerpo para que piense que procreamos. Podemos dejar de tener ganas de procrear a voluntad (cirujias, medicamentos, etc) Decir que somos animales y por eso debemos entregarnos a cuanto instinto nos llame seguro sería lo más fácil y placentero para nuestro bienestar inmediato, pero no nos deja satisfechos como a los animales, porque nosotros tenemos ayer, hoy y mañana, y ellos son un presente eterno (o no, quién sabe). Por lo que tenemos otra necesidad que está por encima de las que compartimos con las fieras: la espiritual (y tal vez la intelectual)

Claro como seres humanos podemos escoger, pero no te decepciones, la naturaleza tiene fuerza sobre nosotros y nuestras decisiones y en esta vaina somos igualitos a los perros y monos. Tambien la sociedad tiene fuerza y esa fuerza espera que tenga hijos--la familia, socios (entre ellos la mayoria de una cierta edad hablan de los problemas y éxitos de sus niños y poco más). Cuando envejesen empiezan con los nietos

Justo hace un rato, leyendo un cuento, llegué a este párrafo:

"Después, en la rambla, le dije que nuestra relación era una cosa ridícula y que era mejor no vernos más. Entonces me contestó que tenía razón, pensándolo bien, y que iba a buscarse un hombre que sea como un animal. No quise decirle nada, pero la verdad es que no hay gente así, sana como un animal. Hay solamente hombres y mujeres que son unos animales."

Lo bello es ver como coincide uno -al estar leyendo un post de un foro y al leer un libro, con una idea semejante en sendos ámbitos.

Hello Jessica.

Hey the same thread about your parents.

I don't believe that your parents do the they do for faulting you the lack, simply they are caring to their daughter of the dangers of the bad people.

Please you should get understand them for the situation that nowadays are happened all the people of the worldwide.

I don't believe your parents are acting bad, of the contrary , I would make the same if I would have a daughter.

But in my case only I have two children.

you don't understand, I am very aware of predators online and I will never never share my personal information.

What I meant by my parents not respecting my privacy. My mom won't let me write in my online journal (no one can see it)

my dad blocked a teen help forum that's supposed to help you in a lot of things and it got blocked!

my parents think everything is bad, but the things I do aren't. Yes, I chat but I don't give away any personal information.

maybe my parents do have the right to look at what I do, but they also have to respect my privacy. Why should I allow them to look what I write in my journal? It's private and mine and my thoughts.

I agree with them, and with you. The journal is an outlet for emotional crud that gets the brain clogged up. You can talk to friends but sometimes friends back-stab and spill the beans. However some problems require outside help. When your emotions are in some problem then the solution will be clouded. Getting a friends opinion is helpful because they could care less.

It's your parents job to protect you. People will write things that parents do need to know in journals. I don't blame them for wanting to read the journal.

I agree with you, I don't blame them for wanting to read the journal. But I agree with Jessica that they should not actually read it. If her thoughts are private, then so should her journal be as well.

Exactly. I have two sons and I encouraged my oldest son to keep a journal. He doesn't. But if he did I would not read it unless I thought he was getting mixed up with drinking or drugs or looked totally depressed. So I'd give him that space, but if he was in trouble I would try to protect him.

The question would be if that protection is good, or would create a weak child. But well, that depends on the child too... he can put a fair ressistence if he is bright enough. I believe that trying to read a journal would be the attitude of someone of another generation, not familiar with this system since childhood. Looking after the emotions of the kid is always right, but if you're awake enough, by talking or looking your child face you would know what is happening, without needing to sneak your head through... He can be sad because he is a clever child, and that is better than be a joyous and flat boy, maybe.

*Please correct my errors, thanks.

¿Un "journal" es un "diario" además de un "periódico"? ¡Qué barbaridad, leer un diario de otro!

Jessica, puedes escribir en español, así no lo entenderán y, de paso, practicarás.

"Diario" tiene una acepción de "periódico que publican diariamente", ¿no?
