  Which just keeps the cycle of “My retirement plan is having kids,” which generally leads to people not having kids to enrich new human lives and make new beings that learn and improve from their parents, but rather to systemically guide new humans through enforced potential financial success in the self-interest of a high return when retirement comes.

      Yes, it is - especially if the parents are abusive. If my parents beat the shit of me regularly until I was 18 and I had to fucking pay them?

      Fuck that.

        I got a bit mixed up in the thread, someone had mentioned abusive parents being exempt but it looks like that’s a Germany thing.

  Keep in mind in Germany this only applies to children making 100,000€ per year or more with impoverished parents provided the parents did not abuse the children. If you can prove you were abused and it would be an undue hardship to provide support then you can be exempted.
