A mum has been blasted for her attitude after ranting online about her daughter choosing not to have a child.
The Gen X parent, in her 40s, branded her girl, who was 22 at the time, "selfish" for deciding that she didn't want to have kids.
The mum slammed "Millenials" for their thoughts on child-bearing - and even claimed she had to have two more children to carry on the bloodline, The Mirror reports.
Taking to Facebook with her controversial opinions, the woman wrote: "I'm Gen X, and I have a huge problem with how I am left carrying the weight for Millennials
"My daughter is 22 and decided a while ago she does not want any kids. She's actually getting a procedure for sterilisation next year.
"But those souls needing to come into our family for ancestral or karmic reasons still need to be born.
"So I'm stuck birthing and raising two babies who should have been born to her but can't be because she's too selfish to have kids."
The Facebook post was shared on Reddit, where users were left enraged and confused about the mum's beliefs.
One replied: "As a Millennial, it's exhausting that we're STILL getting blamed for everything."
Another said: "Millennials are killing the 'Have a baby and use their existence to distract you from your problems' industry."
Others were quick to point out that if her daughter is 22, then she would actually be classed as Gen Z, rather than a Millennial.
However, it doesn't change the fact that more and more young people - both Millenial and Gen Z - are choosing not to have children.
There are many reasons for this, including the increased cost of living, shifting career focus, and environmental reasons.

Percy Jackson And The Olympians has shared the reason behind a drastic character change from the novels to the series.Aryan Simhadri, who plays the character Grover Underwood in the Disney+ adaptation, has opened up about a key difference in the character’s presentation.Grover, a close friend of Percy’s, is a satyr, a Greek mythological creature that is half goat, half human. In the novel series by Rick Riordan, Grover’s primary diet consisted of furniture, aluminium and tin cans.However, according to The Direct, Simhadri has explained why this detail had to be altered for the series, which guest stars Lin-Manuel Miranda, Lance Reddick and Toby Stephens, among others.“Because you know, a lot of younger kids are going to be watching the show, and we don’t really want any eight-year-olds eating tin cans,” he explained.“So, yeah, we’ve maybe went a little light on eating sharp metal objects.”It is also mentioned several times in the novel series that Grover likes cheese enchiladas, so this trait was utilised in the adaptation.“Now [the diet’s] mostly consisting of enchiladas and banana bread, I think,” the actor explained.However, it seems the prop team did initially try to represent the character’s tin can preference, as Simhadri shared: “The props team came up with like a fondant tin can.
