The Controversial Rise of DINKs: Examining the Child-Free Lifestyle
Elon Musk criticized the lifestyle choice of "double-income no kids" (DINK) couples, stating that there is an "awful morality" to deliberately not having children. His comment was in response to viral videos of childless couples discussing the benefits of their lifestyle. While some agreed with Musk, others argued that wanting care in old age should not be the sole purpose of having children. The videos generated backlash, with some commenters insulting the couples and calling them "genetic dead ends."
