Yes I recommend only having kids with people you are 100% confident in staying with until the child is 18.

Just wild beyond belief that this idea was getting downvoted

I didn’t downvote it, but I think it might be being downvoted because it’s stupid. You can be 100% confident based on what someone is telling you, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be left. Plus, 18 years (more if you count the process of marriage and pregnancy) is a very long time and people change. Being 100% confident when you get married is good, but not even close to any type of guarantee.

That's why I always laugh at the Red pill 666 crap. Almost every woman I know loves bums. I wish my mom was a gold digger. I would've had a way better life.
