On "The New System" by Bendrr on

AmazingProgenyRe: On "The New System"
I had never really thought about all of that before. I had always thought that people would be getting married and having babies. I have always wanted a family.

Growing up I could never really see myself living in "The New System." I always saw my life happening in this one. I knew that I would get married and have children in this system. I never really thought beyond that. "The New System" just seemed too far away to really worry about. There was no way I was going to let it stop me from getting married and having children.

The sad thing about this is what I heard several young men did. They had heard a talk, probably by the CO, about how "The New System" was "just around the corner" and it would be unwise to bring children into this old system. Apparently, they really took it to heart and got vasectomies, figuring that God would reverse them in "The New System."

It makes me sad to think of all the people who could have made wonderful parents never having kids b/c they wanted to wait until "The New System" came.
