Mammals got it easy

This is mammal propaganda!

Looks like you triggered some people. Can you elaborate on South America? Is it from personal experiences?

of course it's attacked by avian propagandist without proof to the contrary

Sharks, with hungry babies hatching inside them: “WELCOME TO THUNDERDOME!”

h/t P D Eastman, whose books I have read like 16,000,000 times after having children

Isn't the US infamous for being one of the only countries where once you hit 18 your parents expect you to fuck off?

And if you don't, everyone belittles you for living in your parents' basement?

TIL my parents are birds

How did the crocodile egg get in the nest?

Tell that to giraffe

Found the basement dweller.

A boy found the egg laying on a path. He was surrounded by turtles, alligators, and a bunch of other non-bird animals that also lay eggs. But he assumed it was a bird egg, found the nearest bird nest, put it in, and thought he had done a Good Deed.

What a maroon

This book went hard when I was 4

And these vicious sods, throwing their babies at predators. Look into the face of true evil.

i'm brazilian and i don't think so, but it depends on the parents i guess

Not as true as it used to be I don't think. But yes it has that reputation.

Penguins don't force their children to fly.

Checkmate, atheists!

Reptile: mom? Mom where are you!?

When resources are scarce, birds will literally push the weakest chick out of the nest to increase the survival chance of the rest. They'll keep going too, and kill them all if they have to

Loads of mammals will do that.

Bears, for example.

Hell. Some seals just leave their kids on the ice.

Possums are so smooth brained their kids fall off and mum just keeps the bus rolling. Tasmanian devils, too.

And hippos just forget their kiddos are even there and trample them.

And that’s not even mentioning the crazy shit humans get up to

That's one hell of an egg

Someone else already replied well, but I wanted to add that we're not entirely homogenous, either. Southern US culture still has multigenerational homes as a normal thing. It isn't the majority, but nobody really bats an eye in the South or Appalachia if you live in a home (or on piece of property with multiple dwellings) with your parents, grandparents, some cousins, an aunt or two, and that dude you brought over to dinner once that moved in at 14 when your parents found out his parents were shitty to him.

Yes they do lol

I don't see how that fits the meme.

I think 4 is the American system where a lot of parents expects kids to move out the moment they turn 18.

A macaroon, even!

Alligator mom: "Yurr ein my mouf, idiot"

Cats famously do this to runts

It makes me sick.

That’s racist.

My atheist ways have proven to be wrong. I am now a firm believer in penguin Jesus

I have kittens on the way. I am... pretty stressed out

And if you don't, everyone belittles you for living in your parents' basement?

In more individualistic countries, that is the case. Living with parents and relatives is common in more family-oriented cultures. Even in Europe, the mostly Catholic countries still have people living with their parents. But for Protestant and individualistic European countries, they will judge you harshly for it.

I have to say though, I find that some people who expect anyone over 25 to even move out are a bit simple minded considering the cost of living crisis. You have to have a good job to afford to move out. It is unrealistic these days for many people to do so because of housing crisis. Heck, even with a good job and good pay, the current expensive economic situation mitigates all those advantages! I had a manager who still lives with her parents. My best friend still lives with his parents as well, long after he turned 18and working for many years now. And the more simple minded individuals expect the old ways to still be applicable, but those same individuals actually don't have savings, unlike people who still live with their parents.

Ideally people should move out of home because it is part of growing up and maturing, but the current exploitative system prevent most of us to fulfill our own potential.

The perfect launch!!!
