    Having a life is better than not existing in the first place

    I guess that anyone that has an opinion in this matter is highly biased

      True. One doesn’t have to explain their choice in having children to others anyway.

      It just feels strange, to have an opportunity to give a child a better life than most of the people on the globe can, to want children, and to choose against.

        I don’t think I’d be a good parent so I decided to not have children. I’m in my forties so this is unlikely to change

        The future is bound to suck a lot, so I can understand people who think like that
