Public Divided on the Issue
Many users challenged his perspective, arguing that financial stability should be prioritized over age when deciding to have children.
“What about putting your kids into poverty because you haven’t made it yet at that young age?” one user questioned.
Others shared personal experiences to support their decision to delay parenting, citing struggles growing up without resources or opportunities.
Balancing Age and Readiness
Some responses showed agreement with Kaybee’s sentiment, noting that in past generations, people married and had children at younger ages despite economic challenges.
“I concur… that’s why historically men married from the age of 25 regardless of economic contradictions,” one person commented.
Another user expressed the tension many young adults feel, saying:
“I want children, but time is passing,” highlighting the difficult balance between biological timelines and financial readiness.
Economic Reality Hits Hard
A final sobering response reflected the current climate for many young people:
“Bro, we really can’t afford to have kids right now. We barely can afford ourselves.”
Kaybee’s tweet continues to stir discussion on parenting, planning, and societal pressure in South Africa today.
