The REAL Reason We Don't Have Kids (This is Hard to Talk About)

TIME TO MAKE A DECISION

Alpha and his wife got married later in life (in their 30s) -- and that fact is a reason why they've been successful with their marriage. You change so much in your 20s! So, why don't they have kids. She's career minded and a hard worker, which attracted Alpha to her. She owned her own home by 27 years old and was driving a nice car at that time too. His wife never really wanted kids, and because they decided not to have kids, she poured herself into her career.

Likewise, Alpha was always focused on being successful with his career -- which didn't include children. Alpha is selfish, and plus they both liked their life. She did consider having children due to Alpha being an only child and the only way to bring grandchildren. She felt pressured about that (friends and family asking when they'll have kids), but they made a decision together. They didn't have that burning desire, so they decided not to have kids.

REVISITING THE DECISION

Alpha's wife revisited having children when she hit her 40s. Alpha reassured her that they are on the same page with children. At 45 years old, they still don't have any regrets. Raising children is hard. Alpha doesn't feel he's missing anything, especially since he gets his paternal instincts fulfilled by helping men through his videos. Both Alpha and his wife are living their dreams -- and they have no regrets. They are happy because of it, to boot.

Most people in our society want kids, but Alpha and his wife decided otherwise. The takeaway is that when you meet your special someone, you need to make sure you are on the same page with this decision. If not, animosity could build. They think realistically who will take care of them when they're older. Subsequently, they are making plans for their older years.

MORAL TO THE STORY: DO YOU!

Mid-life crises stem from pressure, according to Alpha. You are doing things people want you to do, and you're not being true to yourself. A lot of guys have them because they are living for someone else: college, job, married, children, and then the realization of death hits, which sprouts feelings of regrets. If you are true to yourself, you can avoid this. Sure, Alpha's been selfish but he's grown with his partner -- and if they grown in different directions, they both are okay with the other person's growth.

One of the most pathetic, most heartbreaking situations is being an unwanted child. Every child should be wanted and cared for with love.

Alpha: "If one of you wants to be adopted by Alpha drop me one of these!"
*starts typing excitedly
Alpha: "Haha I'm kidding!"
*Holds backspace

There’s a lot of people who have kids that should “NEVER” have kids.

Mrs Alpha should start her ASMR channel. Her voice is really calm & soothing.

I lost my dad when I was 22. Even tho I’m only a recent sub, getting consistent tips and guidance from alpha really helps to fill that void.

“Kids or no kids, both great decisions”... applying this to every aspect of life, I believe this is the best thing I’ve heard on Alpha M. channel!!!

I just wanted to say I respect the HELL out of you talking about subjects that are private and not easy for you to talk about, having absolutely zero obligation to do so on YouTube. Big ups man. Stay strong.

I'm 28 and my wife's 33 we have a one year old. I didn't intend on it, totally got pressured. Childcare is running my finances, BUT my son is the best part of my life! He has the most honest love for me, parental love is a totally different feeling.

"it's because I'm a dude" 🤣

Your wife is brilliant when she is a guest. Your connection and flow of conversation is couple goals. The way you look at her man 😍
