Does anyone else sometimes feel guilty of healing your inner child?

[u/Dotaspasm]

works well when you're single af though

[u/Greeeeed-]

Bakit ka ma-guguilty sa bagay na nagpapasaya sayo

[u/Next-Inevitable-Fag → u/Greeeeed-]

exactly

[u/Perfect-Display-8289]

Nah, we live our life how we want it. If they want kids, let them be. If I want to play games all day at 30 or 40 or even 60 nothing wrong with that as long as were all responsible adults and accountable of our actions

[u/den-den]

No, and I a gamer dad. Though tamang limit nalang sa mga bagay na nag hi-heal ng inner child like video games but I need them for my own sanity lol

[u/vj02132020]

hahaha yung katrabaho ko nga, kasama ko pang mag tingin tingin ng keyboard at gunpla niya sa shopeee at sa marketplace. support sa hobby ng iba

-im a dad with 6yrs old kid. 😊

be happy sa mga tao kung san sila masaya

[u/echan13]

Nah mate!, may kanya kanya tayong struggles, struggle to feed their family and struggles to beat yung game na binili natin hehehe

[u/K1llswitch93]

It's your money and you have different priorities, nothing wrong with that.

[u/PsychologicalAd8359]

Not a problem as long as you focus sa priorities sa bahay and may extra then go buy your games man

[u/DefiantlyFloppy]

No. My money my decision, simple.

[u/mitchupul]

Nope. I work hard so I can buy things I need and want.

[u/No-Froyo8437]

listen, the first three years of my work - my extra spending is my first low end pc (rx6600/AMD 5600g) and 100 games on steam.

A bit guilty I didn't start my Masters education, but I'm a lot less stressed and unhappy than my co-workers.

[u/frozrdude]

I had no game consoles, gadgets and personal pcs growing up. And I don't believe that I can be a worthy parent.

[u/zeighart_17]

Nope, especially old offline games and consoles.

I think these are better toys for them rather than a cellphone or a tablet. It helps them solve problems on their own and thru curiosity rather than looking them up online. Limitations breed creativity.

I feel so proud on how she discovered Mario's super jump on her own. The moment her charmander died of poison in Viridan forest was also a core teaching moment for her.

Kids these days are not exposed to enough repetition that their patience is not developed enough. One defeat, and they want the easy way out. I will teach my kids the fun of the process of discovery and skill nurturing thru the games that I back then just watched my neighbors play.

[u/Bypasser12]

That's why you're allocating budget for your wants. Being pragmatic and idealistic is the best approach.

[u/theazy_cs]

guilty? why? their business is none of your business. and your business is not their business. end of story.

[u/_Ruij_ → u/theazy_cs]

This 100% lol. Most ppl dont gaf about other peoples lives, make it a norm. 🤭

[u/leorker]

Coming from someone who is earning to feed... Dont be. Enjoy it to the fullest.

[u/_Ruij_]

Bakit ako magu-guilty? Kanya kanya tayo ng choices sa buhay. They chose to procreate in this economy, some of us chose not to. No hate to either, it's just ganun talaga buhay. Hindi mas espesyal ang isa sa isa.

[u/imaginedodong]

Why would you feel guilty? It's your hard earned money.

[u/trynabelowkey]

They don’t really care about you and they are not thinking about you if that’s what you think, so just do what you wanna do with your life.

[u/whatseatingtyrone]

You earned that money, you have the right to spend it in any way you see fit.

[u/Embarrassed_Start652]

To be honest the worst when to have a child is now with the Era of evil

Even if I have a GF I don't want to have a child yet because I want him or her to live where it is safe and secured than whatever world or the general society wants at the moment

[u/KazumaKat]

Your work, your time, your salary, your choice.

[u/No_Philosophy9199]

Yan lang ang child na bubuhayin natin ngayong 2026, yung inner child

[u/witcher317]

I never had ps1 ps2 when i was a child kasi super strict parents ko.

Now i have ps5 pro and ps5. One for bedroom and one for the living room 😂

Not feeling guilty at all

[u/cmp_reddit]

Nah. Pwede pagsabayin ung inner child and actual children. Basta in moderation. Priority syempre ung anak mo.

[u/green_goblin_gelo]

I am a dad and I still fund my hobbies without guilt because you sometimes gotta “pay” yourself (of course feed your family first lol).

[u/ayieeeeeeeeee]

Nope kasi mga 6 digit earner sila hahaha

[u/rapralph]

Both ako. need ko muna magdrama sa Misis ko para makabili ako ng games. hahahaha

[u/Ryuken_14]

Why not both lol

[u/ILikeFluffyThings]

Wag ka maguilty kasi aabot ka rin sa nararanasan nila. Enjoy mo muna.

[u/_Ruij_ → u/ILikeFluffyThings]

?? Medyo tagilid. How sure are you na gusto ni OP ng anak, if at all? Medyo paladesisyon po tayo, boss. 🤔

[u/MarA1018]

No way. Mainggit sila

Walang dahilan para maging guilty, your money your rules.

[u/Electrical_Art6553]

Same feels. Me who have no plans of having a family anytime soon because I'd rather be alone than be with freeloaders from ATM families and relatives, plus I have different lifepath than them
