I ran into too many adult babies who needed all my time and energy.

I’ve met some of those. Even dated some. They act like they need you to be their mother, and then get upset when you treat them like a child.
I used to scream at my ex “if you don’t want me to treat you like a child, stop acting like one!”

Who would want to bring a child into the world if it is going to be schizo.

There’s no guarantee it will if it’s raised by stable parents.
Not enough people have read Dr. Spock.

My ex husband was very immature.
With one schizo parent the odds are 50/50 I think.
Sorry but thats a dumb way to think.
Two parents with mental illness, no matter how stable one is or both will statistically have a greater chance of having a child with a mental illness. I wouldnt be able to bear a child either, because the med change would be wicked. Schizophrenia runs on my father’s side too. Not meant to have a baby.
Had a boyfriend, but if I still lived wth him maybe one child, hopefully a girl.
But I wasn’t thinking at the time. You are right, it’s a dumb way to think. If i’d known then what I know now, it might have been different.
My partner and I may never have children because of money, her polycystic ovarian syndrome and my choice to not pass on my family genes
