Well, now that I've got the long and short of it, what you're saying makes sense. Thanks for expanding. I didn't have that context.
I don't have any disagreements. I think a decision like whether or not to have children is ultimately up to the individuals making the children. I do think there are many oft overlooked factors that can make having kids unethical, but I'm drawing my line well before suggesting having kids is always evil. That thought heavily implies that humanity itself is unethical and should be ended, and I say it's not our place to decide that (though we could obviously stand to be so much better than we are now).
I appreciate the food for thought. Cheers.
