“I have literally not met anyone who is happy, anyone who has light in their eyes, anyone who has slept," the singer told Alex Cooper on the latest "Call Her Daddy" podcast episode.

    I’ve never met a happy mother. Happy father? Absolutely, but they are not the care givers so it’s easy for them to be happy.

    I don’t know who that is, and I do know happy parents. So, as childfree as I am, I disagree with this statement.

      You think she does know some happy parents? The statement wasn’t all parents are unhappy, it’s that she doesn’t know any.

    Three sons all grown one daughter in high school.

    I’m not very good at very many things, but one thing I’m positive I’m good at is being a dad.

    Yes, I’m a happy parent.

      That’s not what she meant. It’s not “are you happy being a parent?” It’s “are you, a person who happens to be a parent, genuinely happy?”

          Not op bro. I was just letting them know they misread the prompt. I’d love for them to be happy as a person having chosen to have children. Being miserable sucks! I hope that’s not the case, but I don’t know if it is or not because op pointedly did not address it

          There’s a huge difference between “I am happy with my choice” and “I am happy in my life”

            Keep on willfully misreading and mischaracterising what was said to agree with your agenda.

            That’s really effective in life, so I hear.

              Regardless of what the answer is, you are definitely not happy. Seriously my dude. Why are you being so aggressive? Miscommunication happens all the time. It isn’t this big of a deal

              I have no agenda. Unlike you I don’t give a fuck what someone else decides to do with their life. I’m not misreading or mischaracterizing anything. Chappelle roan has been astoundingly clear on her opinion. You’re just not listening, and arguing against what you feel like arguing against. You’re angry at a strawman and it’s preventing you from actually talking about the topic seriously

        A question was asked and I answered. How could anyone with no children, happy or unhappy, answer the question that was posed?

    I know some. My former IT guys both adored their kids. The one quit specifically to get a wfh job so he could spend more time with them.

    I guess she’s interviewed every parent in the world?

    Absolutes like this are always wrong, absolutely.
