I have a sister who is already married with two kids. But my parents aren't satisfied with that and want me, and my other siblings to have kids as well. We're all adults in to our late 30s. I have a house and a car and a job, I love living alone best out of all of those things. Peace is my life. Thing is, I'm satisfied with my life and in no need for kids since my sister's kids already carry our genes anyway and I don't see any more room for more kids. My parents are holding my inheritance hostage unless they see a grandchild from me. What should I do to make my parents happy?

They're not forcing you to have kids. You feel they are because they keep nagging you, but they're not exactly tying you to a bedpost and forcing you to accept a man and getting you pregnant against your will lol.

It's not just about genes and genetics femanon. That isn't the big reason to have kids. It's that one day, you are going to become an orphan. Everyone does and most people don't acknowledge that. By that I mean you will live to see the day where mom is dead, dad is dead, and your family home you grew up in becoming an empty lifeless house. Possibly given to someone else or sold off, etc. And you will be truly alone. You say you love living alone, but that's not a love for loneliness. That's a love for independence.

You have yet to learn the true meaning of loneliness, and it happens when both your parents are dead, never to return and there is no home to run to. You might have a house of your own, but not a home. A home is what happens when a house if filled with a family. And when your old family has perished, you won't have a home anymore, even if you have a house.

That's why it's important to start a new family. Especially if you are a woman because there will be a day where you are desperate, terrified and alone on the day your last parent dies. And your instinct will scream to have a husband and kids. But you'll be 40-50, your ovaries won't be making eggs. It'll be too late.

Dude, she said they're going to cut her out of their will if she doesn't have kids. That's a bit more than just nagging.
>>
>>34374194
Yeah I know, still isn't forcing her though. It's about as close to forcing as you can get without forcing I can agree. I think the parents are fucked up for doing that. If it were me and my kid refused to give me grandkids, I'd still keep them in the will. In fact I'd make sure that kid receives the larger portion of inheritance because they're gonna need it if they don't have a supportive family of their own. But that's neither here nor there, I come from poorfag stock, inheritance isn't something any of us get lol.

They're not forcing her, and as fucked up as it sounds their will is their will. Keyword: 'theirs'. That means if they will the money to go someone who isn't OP that's their choice aka their 'will'. That's how it works.

That's how it's supposed to work, inheritance should be passed on through generations indefinitely. If you're in your 20s/30s it will be 30+ more years until you inherit anything anyways.

>fulfilling your civil duties as a woman
I see no problem here
>>
>>34374217
>Late 30s
>No prospective partner
No issues?
By the way why are we assuming OP is a woman? They didn't say.

What matters more to you - your life or your parents' money?
>>
>>34374014
>Peace is my life.
That's not normal.
That's the goal of someone that has suffered.
How are you doing, op?
>>
>>34374398
>Impying suffering isn't normal
Cmon man.

>>34374014
How certain are you about not having kids? Since if you are a guy you could get a vasectomy and get tested for sperm count, the test comes negative and you have proof that you can't have kids. Since you can't have kids you can just say that you don't want to waste someone time with an childless relationship. If you are a chick, well I have no fucking idea, there are maybe doctor who will give you tests that say you are infertile.

Yeah, suffering enough to change your life goals from the baseline of thriving-reproducing-retire in Florida to living in peace is not normal.
It's common as fuck, but still means you'd benefit from some help.

Why should a genetic dead-end inherit anything? I plan to do the same. I’ll put it this way: if my kid has kids, then they’re participating in the multi-generational project that is my family, which spans back thousands, millions of years. If one of my kids opts out, then they’re not participating in it. I expect that those who are parents will use the money, to a great extent, on their own kids: sending them to college, buying them their first cars, that kind of thing. If a kid chose to go childfree then what are they spending it on? Vacations, alcohol, charitable donations?
Having kids isn’t free. I want to relieve the financial burden for my kids who are parents and help them raise up their children. My kids who are childless don’t need an inheritance anyway, because it’s quite cheap to live with no kids. They’ll be able to live just fine off of their salary and pension.

Ten generations from now, no one in the world will have even 0.1% of your DNA, no matter how many of you descendants reproduce; so why does it matter?

Elaborate

>parents have multiple real estate properties valued in 500k usd maybe even 1 million each
>they won't name those properties after you because you have no kids lol
It's very common in rich families, anon. It's a very legal blackmail.
>>
>>34375423
I understand the concept. It's the specific details that I desire.
What is the exact inheritance being denied here?
>>
>>34375448
>>34375423
Got it. So they won't leave these properties to you.
Are they leaving them to your siblings instead?
Have they explicitly stated you need to have children to get anything or is it implied?
>>
>>34375305
1. Family isn’t just about % shared DNA. And of course my later descendants won’t individually have high % directly from me, but cumulatively there will be many people carrying some fraction of it. (also, there are millions of people alive who already share DNA with me because we share distant ancestors; to the extent that I do care about passing my DNA on, my descendants will have more than 0.1% overlap, assuming that they aren’t mostly descended from people of different races. although this is clearly not important to me considering that my gf is biracial)
2. Why does anything matter at all? If you killed yourself it wouldn’t matter in 100 quintillion years. “Why does anything even matter dude” is equally as good at dismissing “I want an inheritance regardless of your conditions” as it is at dismissing the conditions which were set for that inheritance.

>My parents are holding my inheritance hostage unless they see a grandchild from me.
So what? Your financial situation sounds like you wouldn't really need the inheritance anyway. Children are astronomically expensive.
>>
>>34374014
The whole concept of an inheritance, be it a family farm or a business, is an offering to those yet born. It says "we struggled but with this you will struggle less, and even those yet to come will struggle even less after you". It is planting the seed of a tree whose shade you'll never know. Generational wealth is cumulative and it, unfortunately, cannot grow with someone who will not pass it down. Your parents shouldn't pressure you to have kids. You are your own person with your own life to live. However, they have little reason to will you anything. An inheritance isn't a reward for being someone's child, it is a form of multi-generational savings. Being denied is not a statement of your worth as a child but an admission that you will essentially not generate "interest".

>Parents forcing me to marry and have kids
for the love of god do not have kids just to appease your parents
that's not fair to you, and more importantly, not fair to the kids who would hypothetically exist in this scenario
don't have kids if you're not ready to
>>
>>34374503
>Why should a genetic dead-end inherit anything?
That would be based, if they actually provided the arranged marriage. But since they're expecting you to find a partner in this twisted fucked up era, I can't blame someone who doesn't want to have anything to do with the (((dating market)))
>>
>>34374014
How fucking loaded are your parents that they can split shit amongst multiple siblings and the amount is still large enough that you give a shit
>>
>>34374014
Tell them no.
and fuck inheritance.
>>
How rich even are your parents. Like is this inheritance actually enough to put weight the financial and time burden of having a kid.

Are they planning to die without getting health care because ifnone if them gets long term sick and they choose to get treatment to proling their life instead of just die. There may be no inheritance anyways
