  1. He says he will never have the time that he feels he needs to be a great parent. I respect it 

  3. I hate that the people feel they need to explain. The public is not owed an explanation.

  4. It often feels like it’s the childfree folks who do the most soul-searching in making their choice (which disturbs me, because becoming a parent shouldn’t be taken lightly!). I don’t have any opinion of Cena, but love how clearly and eloquently he talks about this subject.

  7. This dude has done more for kids through make-a-wish than litterally anyone else. Let the man live his life

  9. He’s a crazy cat la- err, dude. A crazy cat dude.

    That’s a thing, right J.D.?

  10. Vance is going to have a serious couch session on this one.

  11. As a parent, I’m glad that John Cena doesn’t want to have children. Not everyone should be parents, and it’s great when people that are self-aware and know they wouldn’t be good parents make that choice. If more people did that, there would be a lot less pain and tragedy in the world.

  15. A lot of good actors have to take off big chunks of time from acting because it can put so much stress on family time.

  16. Dude is probably just infertile because of all the juice.

  18. Hey man, if someone doesn’t want to have children, I totally understand. They are expensive and they don’t get out of your hair for at least 18 years. It’s not for everyone.

  19. **Have Kids** or **Don’t** it’s no one’s damn business.

    Given he has commented though: *Recognising your lifestyle wouldn’t make you the best parent, and that you are happy not to have them is great – hell too many people have them anyway and turn out awful humans because of it* This is a grown up and respectful decision!

  20. As a parent I respect the shit out of this take because he’s absolutely fucking right.

  21. Well, that’s one way to say it.
    At least he admits he doesn’t have the cajones to be responsible for another human
    being. Props.

  24. What is Vance’s opinion of childless retired wrestlers?

  25. Thank you Cena. We the childless now can feel seen. I am never having biological children.

  26. Homie prolly got some of his boys froze though

  27. I don’t see selfishness in people who don’t have kids because they don’t think their life will allow them to be good parents.

    It’s selfless.

  31. Dink. Money to spend on yourself and your spouse.

  34. Dude – just bust a load in someone and figure it out. My life didn’t start until I had a kid. Which is kinda sad saying it out loud but it’s the truth brother. Peacemaker that bitch and have little Eaglies 🦅

  35. So does JD Vance also hate John Cena, or do we only hate women who are not interested in having kids?

  36. Blah blah blah.

    This is so over-played can someone ask John Cena a question we don’t know the answer to??

    Why don’t you ask him why he’s such an asshole to women? Perhaps ask why he makes excuses for Vince McMahon when he’s been accused of heinous abuse of various women.

    I’m glad he isn’t having children. More self obsessed individuals should be so self aware.

  37. I wonder if JD Vance will be demonizing him because he doesn’t want children. Oh wait… he has a penis. Of course he won’t.

  38. I wonder what would happen if JD Vance called him a childless cat lady to his face?

    I’ll give you a hint. It likely wouldn’t end well for the sofa lover!
    💀

  39. I feel the same way. If you know you wouldn’t be the kind of parent that your children would deserve, why would you put them through the emotional pain and lifelong baggage having an inadequate parent causes?

  40. Is that what pandas say?  People go off about how he was one person in the genepool that needed to have a lot of kids.

    Enjoy your life, John. 

  41. Good for him! I support anyone who doesn’t want to have kids. If you know you wouldn’t have the time, or money, or ability to raise a child then that is insightful and reflective of that person to realize this and make a decision not to have kids.

  43. Regardless of his reasoning, this should be normalized. The push for people to have children is only for money to be made. Not for the benefit of any child.
