1. Says who? 2. Measured how? 3.Over what time span? 4. Compared to who and when? 5. Happier or more hedonistic and immature? 6. Who funded the "research"? 7. Lies, damned lies and statistics 8. One phrase: "replication crisis" 9. Meaning and happiness are not the same thing but the former trumps the latter. 10. Responsibility and happiness are not the same thing but the former trumps the latter. 11. Adventure and happiness are not the same thing but the former trumps the latter. If social or educational psychologists conducted the study, ignore it. If people who hate children or do not have them conducted the study, dismiss it. Take note @BasedMikeLee

@Delal57123969 @jordanbpeterson Yeah, every person who has children automatically becomes mature and responsible. Famously, no children are abused, neglected, or abandoned by their parents, ever.

@Delal57123969 @jordanbpeterson This implies that there is only one way to "grow up".

@Delal57123969 @jordanbpeterson Well, I don't buy these absolutes from Mr. Jordan. It sounds preachy to me. There are many ways to find meaning without the need to reproduce the species. We're not cows. For instance, Dolly Parton chose her career over being a mother. She's had a pretty meaningful life, I'd say.

@Delal57123969 @jordanbpeterson I regret many things in my life. But having children is not one of them.

@Delal57123969 @jordanbpeterson There are physiological changes that happen to women during pregnancy and childbirth. It's like a butterfly crawling out of a chrysalis. Before the child, they are a young woman. After the child, they are a mother. If a man is lucky, he can walk this path with her to be a dad.
